Operating budget passes billion 
dollar mark, fully funds schools 



Education referendum with 
tax increase part of plan 



By Lee Cahill 

City Council Reporter 

For the first time the operating budget, 
if approved as proposed for fiscal year 
1998-99, will reach the billion dollar 
mark and beyond and represents a 4.5- 
percent increase over the 1997-98 
operating budget, 

Otherwise, the budget proposed by 
City Manager James K. Spore at a 
special City Council meeting Tuesday 
has no surprises, acknowledges no crises, 
requires no real estate tax rate increase — 
the current rate is $122 per SlOO 
valuation, has no increases in other 
taxes, and fully-funds the budget 
approved by the School Board. 



1997 record 
tourism year 
at the Beach 

Study says that 
economic impact 
surpassed $1 billion 

By Aune Kirk 

Correspondent 

Officials of the Virginia Beach 
Department of Convention and Visitor 
Development weren't dancing on the 
boardwalk last week, but they were pretty 
pleased wten a study from Old Dominion 
University revealed 1997 as a eecordycar 
for tourism in the city. 

The total economic impact of the resort 
industry to the region amounted to more 
thanSl billion last year, according to the 
study conducted by ODU's Bureau of 
Research. 

Virginia Beach also received a 43 
percent return on its annual tourism 
investment. Reports showed the city had 
$29 million in expenditures and S41.4 
million in tax revenue, yielding a S12 
million direct return on their investment. 

"It's hard to improve on good news," 
said Dr. Gilbert R. Yokum, chairman of 
ODU's Department of Economics. "It 
was a record yrar." 

It is unique that Virginia Beach reports 
its visitor-generated expenditures in trams 
of direct revenues, Yokum said. The 
revenue, whk;h comes from city taxes on 
visitor accommodations, dining and 
amusements, provides a valid 
measurement of net direct dollar return- 
on-investment made by the city. 

ODU's study coincided with statistics 
compiled by the Virginia Beach 
Department of Convention and Visitor 
Development that showed all economic 
indicators up over 1996. 

A record 2.5 million people visited 
Virginia Beach last year and occupied 
2,214,333 rooms city wide. They pushed 
hotel sales up by 8 percent, totaling 
$150.6 million and increased restaurant 
sales 5 percent to S473.2 million. Direct 
visitor spending, which amounted to 

Sm 1997, Pag* 8 



The budget also includes an amount 
equal to 3 percent of payroll for salary 
increases for city employees and three 
percent of payroll for increases in school 
employee compensation. 

The $1,009,472,234 budget is within 
the city's means, said E. Dean Block, 
director of management and budget, and 
will allow the city to maintain services 
that the city of 442,244 (the populau'on 
projected for 1999) will require. 

The Capital Improvement Program 
(CIP), which with the operating budget 
make up 'ne city's resource management 
plan, iicludes new appropriation 
authorit' over the six-year program of 
$599,151,773 for a total budget of 



$1,188,995,484. 

The new appropriation authority 
represents an 8.7-percent iiKrease over 
tlw 1997-98 new appro[»iation suthority. 

Under a financial plan proposal in the 
budget, the November school bond 
referendum will require a four cent real 
estate tax increase rather than the wiginal 
5.3 percent needed to finance the $132.8 
million needed for the school 
construction program outlined by the 
schools. 

Rather than placing the total $132.8 
million on the referendum, the city 
would have an S84 million referendim 
and finance part of the program with 
other sources — $5.1 million from the 
1997-98 school surplus reversion and 
$43.7 million from the city's charter 
bond authority over the six-year CIP 
paiod. 

The referendum may be reduced even 
further if the GetBral Assembly provides 



school «mstnK;tion funds. 

AUo, the school constnK;tion review 
committee last week noted in its report 
that the figures first presented by the 
kIkm! system cmi possibly be r«)u(^ by 
10 pCTcent. 

The school {vogram will include the 
renovati(»i and/or recwistruction of 18 
elementary schools to bring them up to a 
prototype. The council, ^cording to 
Block, may want to make the decision on 
the size of the referendum after the budget 
is adofjied on May 12 but before June 30 
whkh will still allow tinie for informing 
the public ifwior to the referendum. 

After years of uncertainty over the Lake 
Gaston water supply project and the 
future of the Oceana Naval Air Station, 
causing die city to be overcautious ^XHit 
spending, the resource plan recommends 
the increase in the per c^iladebt limit

Scuba enthusiasts take the plunge, 
— literally — for 24-hour fund- raiser 

Dive for A Cure nets 
$10,000 for cancer 
research, education 



By Matthew Shanley 

CofresDondent 

The feet of David Widen and Jeff 
Eubank spoke volumes about theii 
belief in the Dive for A Cure fund- 
raiser for the American Cancer 
Society. 

More than 24 hours after they haj 
donned scuba gear and entered the 
chlorinated pool at 1413 N. Great 
Neck Road, the pair emerged to the 
applause of more than a dozen well- 
wishers and other divers, in part 
because the event brought in moit; 
than $10,000 for the organization, 
surpassing last year's $8,000 total at 
3:30 a.m. Saturday. 

Both men seemed fine after the day- 
long underwater adventure, except for 
their feet, which suffered from 
exposure to the 92-degree water and 
from being encased in the Neqirene 
boots used to protect the toes aid 
ankles from chafing. 

Normally, flippers are attached to 
the end of the boot, but in this case, 
both men went without. Eubank and 
Widen came out of the 60,000-gaIlon 
heated indoor pool sporting tender, 
shriveled feet of an unearthly pink 
color. 

Eubank, a Virginia Beach resident, 
also experienced a stomach problem at 
3 a.m. Saturday morning that persisial 
throughout the dive despite a dosetrf 
Maalox. 

Both men said the effort was waih 
it, though "getting t6o bored and 
being able to sleep" were Widen's 
main concerns. 

The C^^apeakeman and his partner 
spent no more than 15 minutes on 
land at any one time, and were 
underwater for as long as two hours 
and 15 minutes before coming to the

surface for food or a quick trip to the 
bathroom. 

Unlike most of the more than 200 
divers who came and went in two- to 
three-hour shifts, however, Witten anl 
Eubank said they wanted to go the 
distance. 

"I think we're both hard-headed

The money from the Dive for a Cure

TORNADO SEASON ALERT 

Know the facts and prep^F§- 

Tornadoes are spectacular, awesome — and 
deadly. 

Two years ago 24 tornadoes were reported 
In Virginia, four times the average of six a 
year. One person was injured when two 
tornadoes plowed through parts of Fairfax 
and Loudoun counties destroying six homes, 
damaging dozens of others and knocking out 
power for up to a week In some areas. Later 
that year twin tornadoes in the wake of 
Hurricane Bertha injured nine people in 
Northumberland County and severely 
damaged or destroyed 20 mobile homes. 

And who can forget the horrific scenes of 
destruction in 1993, when the most 
tornadoes — 18 — struck Virginia in one day. 
Four people were killed and more than 200 
injured when twisters struck the cities of 
Petersburg. Hopewell and Colonial Heights. 

Hampton Roads can no longer be lured into 
a false sense of safety. Last year Tidewater 
saw its own share of twisters, from water 
spouts to the tornado that tore through 
South Norfolk causing millions of dollars In 
damages. 

According to the National Weather Service, 
tornadoes can hit anywhere at any time. 
Proof? As early as January one was reported 
in Southeast Virginia. But tornado season is 
April through October, with twisters typically 
striking between 3 and 9 p.m. Always born 
out of severe thunderstorms, tornadoes can 
be stationary or travel at speeds of up to 90 
miles per hour. 

When severe thunderstorms threaten, the 
National Weather Service (NWS) advises 
people to watch the sky and pay close 
attention to weather advisories. 

Knowing simple safety rules and taking 
immediate action can save your life: 

■ The best shelter from a tornado Is a 
basement. If you don't have one, go to a room 
without windows nearest the center of the 
house or lowest level of the house. 

■ Avoid windows. Opening windows to 
equalize pressure is ineffective in reducing 
damage during a tornado. 

■ Mobile homes are extremely unsafe. Seek 
shelter elsewhere. 

■ If you are caught In an open building like 
a shopping mall, get into the restroom. 

■ If you are outside when a tornado strikes, 
try to find shelter immediately in the nearest 
substantial building. If no buildings are close, 
lie flat in a ditch or other ground depression. 

■ Finally, if you are in your car. get out and 
try to find shelter. A bridge underpass, 
culvert or ditch can all provide shelter. 

Remember, know the facts and be prepared.

Virginia's mental health is on the brink 



By Scott Bates 

At this very moment, more than 
4,000 Virginians are in mental 
health institutions run by the 
commonwealth of Virginia. The 
patients are someone's brother, 
sister, mother or friend. They fixs 
time having to deal with in many 
cases debilitating mental illnesses 
and addictions that rob them of 
their grip on reality. 

In addition to the state 
institutions, there are 40 
community service boards that 
monitor the care for the mentally 
ill, mentally retarded and 
chemically addicted Virginians who 
have sought treatment. These 
boards have been a link between 
localities and the state bureaucracy 
to ensure care for consumers of 
mental health care. 

It has not been a perfect system 
and it certainly is costly. Virginia 
spends, including federal Medkaid 
dollars, approximately $850 
million a year on the care of the 
mentally ill, mentally retarded and 
those with substance abuse 
problems. TTiousands of Virginian 
families have benefited from the 
mental health care assistance fifom 
the state. 

Before leaving office, fcxmer 
Gov. George Allen put in motion a 
plan to close state mental health 
institutions and put thousands of 
the mentally ill into the 
"community." The main problem 
with the Allen plan is that there is 
no mandatory funding mechanism 
to provide the care that these folks 
need. 

The state will wash its hands of 
the matter and there is no guarantee 
that funds will be turned over to 
local communities who will be on 
the front lines of care for the 



The families for the 
mentally ill and 
mentally retarded 
need to know that 
their loved ones 
are receiving 
quality care and 
are not seen as a 
line item. 



mentally ill. 

"FormerGov. Allen's plan is an 
act of political cowardice," said 
Joseph Haynes, former Virginia 
Commissioner for Mental Health, 
Mental Retardation and Substance 
Abuse Services. 

"This plan is punitive on the 
consumers of mental health 
services and their families," said 
Haynes. "We need to invest in 
people, not pull the rug out from 
under them." 

Haynes' problem with the 
AIleii/Gilmoreplan is based on the 
abrogation of state responsibility 
for the care of the mentally ill and 
mentally retarded. With no 
guarantee of state funds to 
community based treatment, the 
closing of state mental healds 
facilities and release of patients 
could have profound impacts on 
neighborhoods across the 
commonwealth. 

The families for the mentally ill 
arul mentally retarded need to know 
that their loved ones are receiving 
quality care and are not seen as a 
line item in a budget that needs to 



be cut to give tax cuts to peqjle 
who drive shiny BMWs. The lest 
of a civilization is how it treats its 
very young, its very old aid 
infirm. 

Mental illness and mental 
retardation cruelly rob patients of 
part of their identity and place great 
burdens on even the most loving 
and supportive families. What is 
needed is a plan to make sure 
patients are treated as individuals 
and receive the care they need. 

Fortunately there is such a plan 
in the works. Delegate Frank Hall 
(D-Richmond) wrote and passed a 
bill in this session of the G^ieral 
Assembly that is the First revision 
of the law governing Virginia's 40 
community based mental heidth 
boanls since the 1960s. The bill, 
awaiting Gov. Gilmore's signature, 
would: 

■ Require that the board assign 
care managers to identify the 
treatment each person needs and 
And the services in the commimity. 
Currently law provides only that 
boards provide emergency care. 

■ Impose new standards &x 
board membership and directors. 
One third of each board must be 
comprised of consumers of mental 
health services and their family 
membos. 

Directors would have to meet 
minimum competency 
requirements. Boards will have to 
provide a more thorough 
accounting of their expenditereof 
state funds. 

Hall's bill is a sensible response 
for a continuing commitment to 
the care of the mentally ill and 
mentally retarded in Virginia. Will 
Gilmore help Virginia meet the 
test (tf a civilized society?

I decided to give my own vo^on 
of the Oaar — "the Vicky" fw best- 
dressed folks. They 're sure to make it 
onto Ken Blackwell's best-dre^ed 
list in 1998. 

First the fashion do's. 

Though I'm nota big Minnie Driver 
("Good WiU Hunting") fan, I believe 
the dark-haired Brit looked stunning 
in h» red, slightly asymetrical off- 
the-shoulder number. Her ringlets 
cascaded over sleek shouldo^, and 
she wore one large jeweled Ivacd^ 
Even if she didn't take home the 
OSes' for best supporting actress, her 
fashion acumen was a real winner. 

Best dress«! male is a tc»s up, 
mostly because I'm mit a tuxedo

ticulariy handsome. RoUn WilliMis

Not much needs to be said about

sonttthing die cat dragged in with her 
scraggly hair and ill-planned dress.

The Real 
World 

By B.J. Ses- 
sions, senior col- 
umnist. 



Springer's 'no 
limits' goes 
just too far 

It may come as a surprise to some, 
but columnists do read odier colum- 
nists' works. I have die same routine 
each week. I read my own column 
first and dien 
I read the 
other col- 
umns. I must 
say that I was 
somewhat 
surprised, 
but pleased, 
as I read my 
dear friend 
and col- 
league Dr. 
Raymond 
Jones' col- 
umn "Con- 
tinuum" in 
last week's 
Chesapeake 
— — — — Post. 

I say diis 
because over 
die years that I have known Ray, 
I have found him to be a compassimi- 
ate, city-loving, intelligent gendcmen 
who very seldom ever criticizes any- 
diing or anybody unless die situation 
is really bad. He would rather praise 
dian criticize. Tliis week he took on 
the Jerry Springer smut show. 

For diose who have never seen it, 
it's in die same category as Howard 
Stem and die old Geraldo Rivera 
slime. Rivera would bring in a bunch 
of dimwits and put them against each 
odier. They would throw chairs, cuss 
and hit each odier. Fortunately dur- 
ing one of the melees, Rivera was hit 
in die face widi a chair and his nose 
was broken (too bad it wasn't his 
neck). It wasn't bng after diat he 
claimed diat he saw die error of his 
ways and now claims to have ahtgher 
level show. 

Springer has no limits on what is 
allowed on his show. They come 
ready to fight and some appear to be 
druidc or on drugs. Springer provdces 
diem, and when die going gets rough, 
he runs for cover like die coward diat 
he is. It would be nice if he got caught 
up in die crossfire and got his big 
beek busted like Rivera. He must 
have a big following — his is the 
number one watched talk show on 
daytime television. 

Jones says, "I hq)e Mr. Springer's 
litde effon dies a computer's death, 
garbage in, garbage out" 

I hope so, but I'm not sure dut is 
going to happen.Oir country is lead- 
erless and we have a president who 
speaks widi no moal authority what- 
soever. As long as it remains diat 
way, the Jerry Springers of die worid 
will continue to flourish. The hly- 
livered politicians are afraid to con- 
demn the Jerry Springer filth lest 
diey be accused of interference widi 
free speech. 

Wehave 1 1-and 13-year-oIdchil- 
dren killing odier chikiren. Thoe have 
been diree school shootings in recent 
months. Don't kid yourself, children 
watch die Jerry Springer show and 
see grown u|» cussing and fighting 
and trying to hurt each odier. 

There is so much hatred displayed 
on die Springer show. I have been 
writing about the smut peddlers ova- 
die years, and it makes me feel good 
to know that my friend, Raymond 
Jones, feels die same way. Thanks 
Ray. 
Welcome to die real world.

April Fool's Day 
traditions no jolte 




The 

Mayor's 

Report 

Mayor Meyera 
Oberndorf 



April 1st is considered to be April 
Fool's or All Fool's Day. It is a day of 
practical jokes and high humor. Cel- 
ebrations during this time may have 
their origin in 
the fi^t that 
the 1st of 
April marks 
the end of the 
spring equi- 
nox, a poinf 
at which 
nightandday 
are of equal 
length all 
over the 
world. 

The origin 
ofthecustom 
of playing 
tricks and 
practical 
jokes on this 
particular 
' day is uncer- 

tain but it 
seems to have 
come from France as a result of a 
change to the Gregorian calendar in 
1582 when New Years' was moved 
from April 1 to January 1. Thus, the 
first April fools may have been people 
who failed to make the proper adjust- 
ment. It is also believed that since 
April 1 coincides with the zodiac 
sign of the fish, the French call it 
Fooling the April Fish Day. Some 
practices over the world are: 

■ France - On this day, school 
children stick paper cutouts of fish on 
their classmates' backs. Both the day 
and the dupes are called "Aiffil fish." 

■ Gnmany - April Fools* Day 
jdces and pranks are popular. The 
pranksters cry, "April, April" when 
someone is caught. 

■ Great Britain • Pranks are played 
on this day and dupes are sent for 
"left-handed screwdrivers" orstriped- 
painL" However, the pranking can 
last only until noon. After that you 
tell anyone causing a prank, "April 
Pools' Day's past and gone. You're 
the fool for making one." 

■ New Zealand - The time for 
playing pranks is only until noon on 
April 1. After noon, you say: "April 
Fool's Day is past 

And you're the April Fool at last 

Four Farthings make a penny 
„ ^yau'reabigger/ool than any." 
., 11, S|cw4in*via - A, non-church 
holiday — and there is a little verse: 

"April, April, you silly fish. 

I can trick you however I wish." 

■ Scotland - April 1 is known as 
"Huntigowk Day." It is a day for 
playing pranks and the name comes 
from the familiar prank of sending 
someone to "hunt the gowk another 
mile." Someone is sent on an errand 
bearing a message that says, "Don't 
you laugh and don't you smile. Hunt 
thegowkanothermile."The receiver, 
who is in (Ml the joke, reads it and tells 
the bea^r that this is the wrong place, 
sending him on. Thus the fool "hunts 
the gowk another mile" until he 
catches on. 

■ Sweden - If you are in Sweden 
on AiHil 1, be {H^pared to be fooled 
by young and old alike. This is the 
day that "anything goes." Children 
try all kinds of ways to fool the 
grownups and when the ruse is dis- 
covered, they hear this verse: 



The origin of the 
custom of playing 
tricks and practical 
jokes on this 
particular day is 
uncertain but it 
seems to have 
come from France. 



"April, April, you silly fish 
I can fool you as I wish." 
So people beware and remember 
this morning as you leave home, to- 
day, "anything goes."

Up close and personal 

Hoanne Watson: iHeart and home 



By Victoria H0cht 

Editor 

Joanne Batson is one of the fortunate few 
who has always had the perfect job to fit her 
abilities and interests. 

At 26, she started her own publishing 
business and founded Greensville (S.C.) 
Woman magazine. In 1991, she became 
executive direeter of the Greensville, S.C. 
YWCA. 

A few years later Batson moved home to 
her native Virginia, where she got a job as 
financial development director for the 
Tidewater Chapter of the American Red 
Cross. Today she's pursuing another interest 
— healthy lifestyles. 

Five months ago Batson joined the 
American Heart Association (AHA) as vice 
president of field services for eastern 
Virginia. The region covers everywhere 
between the Eastern Shore to the east, 
Franklin to the west and YoA County to the 
north. The office is located in Vii^inia 
Beach. 

"I did the classic American dream 
backward," she said. "I think it's my 
upbringing — no guts, no glory." 

As one of two daughters, Batson was 
"taught that we could do anything we 
wanted to do" by a father who taught his 
daughters to fish and play poker. She 
describes her mother as a "pillar of strength . 
and the good role model" who kept them 
grounded. Summers were spent in 
Deltaville, where the only summer apparel 
that Batson and her sister needed were 
bathing suits. 

"We were water babies," she laughed "I 
was white-haired and black from the sun. 
Dad had a little boat for me. Now that we're 
back here I look at the water every day." 

As a fun, fearless female, Batson is used 
to taking risks. Starting her own magazine 
certainly was one, as was moving to 
Hampton Roads and taking a job in fund- 
raising with the Red Cross. Her duties are 
similar with the AHA. She was particularly 
attracted to the association because she 
could see where the funds were really 
making a difference. She said also that 
every family is touched by heart disease. 

Right now, with the Heart Ball behmd 
her, Batson is gearing up for another fiind- 
raising effort — Cardiac Arrest. 

"We're doing it a little different this year. 
We're actually having Cardiac Arrest within 
eastern Virginia all on the same day. May 
14. We're looking for volunteers and have 
something for everyone to do," she said. 

One of Batson 's goals is to help the AHA 
get a permanent exhibit at the Children's 
Museum of Virginia. It would include a 
gigantic heart that youngsters could wander 
through and a station where they could find 
out morie about heart-healthy lifestyles. 

Batson likes to practice what she 
preaches. She's op every mwning at 5:30 to 
exercise, and she's working to dispel the 
myth that heart disease and stroke/brain 
attack is only a problem among the older 
population. 

"Another problem is if you ask people if 
they have heart disease in their family and 
they say no. Then you come to find out one 
the parents died of stroke. They just don't 
connect stroke/brain attack with heart 
disease. There's still not enough education 
out there," she said. 

Name: Joanne Batson. 

What brought yoa to this area: It

in 1971.

the time to conplete writing three books 
in progress. 

If I received $1 mllUon: Id take 
time off to write and make as many 
wishes as possible come true for my 
family and friends. 

If I had 10 minutes on national 
television: I wouW use five minutes to

Association and give five minutes to my 
nephew, S«>tt, to play his nuisic.

Parents group keeps PEACE, 
reducing youth violence 




By Margaret WIndley 

QofresDondenl 

Adolescent violence is not 
necessarily something 
happening somewhere else to 
somebody else's chilcben. 

It's not the special preserve 
of any social or economic class 
or any area of the country. 

It is a possible danger to all 
segments of society, 

Jolted by 
the recent 
events in 
Jonesboro, 
Ark. but en- 
ergized by 
Uieir own 
children's 
experience, 
several 

parents , ._i™, 
attended ^"^^ 

a presentation last week at the 
Mount Trashmore YMCA to 
learn about 
P.E.A.C.E.KEEPERS, a YMCA 
program that could offer their 
children guidance in finding 
non-violent solutions to their 
problems and in growing up 
maturely. 

It is also open to {MUents and 
interested adults who want to 
become involved in making 
their communities safer and 
will train them in mentoring 
and conflict resolution skills. 

Aimed at assisting youngsters 
aged 8 and older, the program 
is made up of three phases, 
explained Keith Lambert, 
P.E.A.C.E.KEEPERS 
coordinator. 

In the first is Conflict 
Resolution, a 12-week {rogram 
teaching non-violoit methods. 

The second phase is a year- 
long program made up ctf 



Fatherhood/Manhood for young 
males and Breaking the Chain 
for young females. Leadership 
Development and Club, the 
third phase, is a contiiming 
phase for young women and 
men together and will last as 
long as the young people 
continue to attend. 

"I believe we can make a 
difference,'!, |aid Lambert, who 
is pleased to offer the 
program's multi-faceted 
services. "Conflict resolution is 
just a small part of oar 
program." 

Lambert blames the loss of 
the sense of community in 
modem America for much of 
today's violence. 

"Conununity leaders, parents, 
neighbors should be helping our 
children, the child next door, 
the child across the street, our 
nieces and nephews, 
grandchildren, everybody," he 
said. "We should be helping 
everybody." 

When he was growing up in a 
tightly-knit community, 
everybody knew evnybody 
else and knew when the 
neighbors' children got into 
trouble. When Lambert did 
something wrong ai a 
youngster, he remembered 
being scolded by everybody in 
the neighborhood. 

"We don't have community 
any more," he said. "People 
knew who I was." 

With the disappearance of 
community has gone the 
reinforcement for positive 
behavior from the neighbors, 
and school safety has become 
an important issue for a large 
numb^ of children today. 

In fact, many students are 



afraid to go to the bathroom 
because of bullies, said Jim 
Belin, a corrections (teparmient 
employee who is in chaise of 
the Leadership Develqmirat 
portion of the 
P£A.C£.K£EPeRS program. 

He recmtly spoke to several 
youngsters at a Diver^ty 
Conference in a local middle 
school. 

"When you think things are 
going great, listen to middle 
acboolkidiin to 13," he said. 
"What they think are the top 
three diversity isaues — 
number one was violence." 

He was particularly saddened 
by the experiences of one little 
giri who had been beaten by 
bullies so frequently that she 
was becoming afiraid to come 
to school. "She needs help but 
so do the kids who are beating 
ho' up," he said. 

Belin assN-ted a. belief that 
youngsters are under some sort 
of attack and compared the 
work to a personal mission. 1 
am here and I am doing this 
program because it's lomedilng 
that I care about," said Uie 
retired army officer. He 
explained that he did not pny 
for safety half as much when 
he was in South East Asia 
during the Vietnam War as he 
does today. 



Conflict Resolution and 
Breaking the Chains meet on 
Thursdays from 7 to 9pjn. at the 
Mount Trashmore YMCA. 
Fatherhood/Manhood meets 
there on Tuesdays from 7 to 9 
p,m and on Saturday with a day 
of recreation. For more 
Information call thf Family 
Counseling Center, 498-1135. 



Operating budget passes $1 biilion 



Centlnuad From Pag* 1 

from $1,300 to $1,500. 

This compares with a $3,000 per 
capita debt limit in neighboring 
Chesapeake where the city manager 
has recommended deferring most 
capital projects at least for the 
1998-99 fiscal year. 

The resource plan, according to 
staff, is contingent on rising the 
debt limit po' capita. 

With the Lake Gaston i»oject 
finally exuicated from 12 years of 
litigation and the Navy's decision 
to bring more planes to Oceana, 
the city fMls freer about planning 
for the future. 

However, neither . the 
operating budget or the CIP 
contains funds to implement die

public library improvements and 
expansion requested last year by 
the public library. 

The library had requested a 
November 1997 rtferendimito find 
new construction and rduA>Uitatk>n 
but no decisions were made. A 
number of options have beoi 
forwarded which council may 
consider at one of the budget 
workshops. 

Another policy decision facing 
council is the long-range planning 
for and financing of school 
instructional technology. 

Key provisions of the tolerating 
budget include: 

■ Funding full-year lease and 
operating costs for the new social 
services and building and idocated 
health dqiaitment; 

■ Cost increases in the Virginia 
Retirement System coverage for 
employees which imjmct twth the 
city and school (q}erati<Mis bud^ 
— the city contribution rate will 
increase from 11.91 to 13.59 
percent of salaries plus the 
stimulated costs of House Bill-36 
(Retirement Allowance F<»mula, 



macted by the legislature this yean 

■ The inclusion of 15 addUond 
police offices through the fisdeod 
CIPS grant prqpam bringing to 
103 the number of officers added 
for community policy through the 
inogram since fiscal year 1994-95; 

■ Over $1 million added to die 
social services budget in additional 
state and fedend revenue to rapport 
welfare reform; 166.92 net 
additional positions of whkh 
113.75 are funded through the 
school opiating Auk! and 53.17 by 
grants. 

The city budget increases the n^ 
full-time equivident positions by 
9.82. 

In both the operating and die 
capM budgets die schools take die 
biggest portion of the city's 
resources with a proposed opo^ing 
budget of $515,928,683, a 5.9- 
percent increase over the current 
year and school capital 
improvements coming u> 
$133,340,086, a $293.2 pereent 
increase over the current year's 
compared to city im{nx>vements, 
which make up $50,475,442 of die 
total program or a drop of 25.6 
percent over die current year. 

The executive summary of the 
resource plan notes that the city's 
current filial condition is excellent 
indicated by its strong fundbalaice 
75 to 100 percent of die subsequent 
year's general fund debt is 
maintained as an undesipaied 
general fund balance, an Aa2 bond 
rating (the highest in the regkin)

spending.

April Fool's Day: American-style 




Outki 
Left Field 

By Bob Ruegaegger, 
columni$t 



When Abraham Lincdn made the 
obswvation ihat "you can fool all the 
pwple some of the lime, and some of 
the people all the time, but you can- 
not fool ail 
the people 
all of the 
time," he 
indubitably 
intended 
his com- 
ment as an 
admonition 
to politi- 
cians and a 
compli- 
mentary 
(by refer- 
ence) to the 
voting pub- 
lic. 

— _ R e - 

""""'"'"""""^ cently.I've 
been hav- 
ing some very serious doubts about 
whether the American public is at ail 
deserving of the credit ol' Honest 
Abe conferred upon us during his 
spcwh on SepL 8. 1858 in Clinton, 
Illinois. 

Sometimes it appears that most of 
the public is fooled most of the lime 
by the politicians, the promoters and 
ihepaiwrazzi. 

Although April Fools' Day is also 
observed in Australia, Great Britain, 
Canada and France, Americans in 
particular appear to actually "cel- 
ebrate" it throughout the entire year. 
Americans seem to be "lalcen in" 
continuously by every political scam 
and fraudulent claim known to man, 
Our culture simply reveals in social 
tomfoolery. 

Politicians, fwexample, still might 



not be able to fool all of the people all 
of the time, but they certainly appear 
to be making "progress" in that direc- 
tion. At ihc very least, enough of 
them fool enough of the people 
enough of the time in order to Mcure 
sufficient votes for re-election. 

One of the problems with "repre- 
sentative" government is that our rep- 
resentatives represent the people, 
special interest groups and them- 
selves. Thai's where ihe difficulty 
exists. 

No matter how earnest a politician 
might be, he (or she) also must con- 
sider his own interests, and it is likely 
that his personal interesu will take 
precedence over the interests of his 
constituents when a disparity devel- 
ops between the two. Only a fool, a 
person who has no clue about normal 
human behavior, could think other- 
wise. And if personal interest isn't 
enough, throw campaign contribu- 
tions into that equation. 

Essentially, a campaign conuibu- 
tion isalegal bribe. What knucklehead 
could honestly believe that a substan- 
lial contribution to an elected 
official'scampaign coffers would not 
eventually produce some kind of ad- 
vantage for the patron? 

Yet the priu:tice continues because 
the law permits it Who makes the 
rules? Hmmm. 

Much to their "credit," politicians 
have aLso convinced us that we can 
have more government services and 
pay less in taxes — an impossibility, 
We simply cann« receive more and 
Cfflitribuie less. 

It doesn't lake a rocket scientist to 
see the absurdity of that formula, yet 
many Americans can't seem to grasp 
that elementary concept.' 



Beach's Van Cleave In 
New York production 



Chris Van Cleave of Virginia 
Beach will play Jesus in "Slabat 
Mater: Donna De Paradiso," a folk 
opera to be performed April 7-8 in 
the Cathedral of St. John the 
Divine in New York City. The 
cathedral is the largest Gothic 
cathedral in the world. 
Perfonnances will begin at 7:30 
p.m. Tickets are S15 ($10 for 
students and seniors). Call (212) 
665-4516 for information. 

Nowrangcr to the role of Jesus, 
'^f^Gietmam^mtwo mmtmal 
tours of "Jesus Christ Sufwrsiar" in 
the United States and Canada and 
also played Jesus in a British tour. 
He wrote the musical score and 
played Joe Davidson (a modem day 
Jesus) in "The Davidson Affair" r. 
the Wells Theater, Norfolk, in the 
early 1980s. In recent years, he 
played Jesus in two Easter 
productions of "Let All Heaven 
Rejoice" at the Pavilion and 
"Godspeir'at the ARE Conference 
Center. Van Cleave will soon be 
seen as Don Quixote in "Man of 
La Mancha" for a 12-pcrfomiance 
run at the ARE beginning May 29. 
Unlike previous performances of 




Chris Van Cleave 

Jesus, Van Cleave will sing this 
one in Italian and Latin with 
highly-stylized actions based on 
Medieval perfomiance patterns. TTje 
opera is based on a poem by 
Medieval monk Jacopone da Todi, 
who was excommunicated and 
imprisoned for his poems against 
the power and corruption of the 
Pope and the Catholic church. 



Health department open

the staff and celebrate Public 
Health Week. Health director Dr. 
Venita Newby-Owens and Maycw 
Meyera Obemdorf will conduct a 
short program and ribbon-cutting 
ceremony at 3:30 p.m. 

The Virginia Beach Dqiartment 
of Public Health has lecendy 
relocated and consolidated three 
office sites into one location at 
Pembroke Corporate Center III. 
The department occupies 32,635 
square f^t of sp^e on tfie first two 
floors of the three-story building.

The site is in a central location 
in Virginia Beach and is on major 
bus routes. The WtC Program still 
maintains three additional offices in 
Virginia Beach. 

Consolidation of 113 staff to this 
one location has resulted in 
reduction of network costs, pooling 
of vehicles, A/V equipment and 
cellular phones, reduction of travel 
between sites, a better design for 
clinic facilities and shared staff.

Another just cause for jubilation 
on April Fools' Day is the unbeliev- 
able penchant of the American public 
to embr^e nearly every fad, fashion 
and promotion invented by mankind. 

When Riineas T. Bamum noted 
that there was a "sucker bom every 
minute," he might have been entirely 
justified adding "in America" for 
special emi^asis. From athletic shoes 
to automobiles and from toilet paper 
to lax shelters, everyone aj^jears to 
be promoting something "extraordi- 
nary." 

And again the promoter— as is the 
politician — is able to fool enough of 
the people ernugh of the time to 
make an almost obscene ptofii 

Do advertisers and promoters view 
Americans as duped dolts doling out 
dollars? It's difficult to decide. 

Famous ptaplc, tasteless jingles, 
pseudo scienceand perfunctory prom- 
ises appear to account fa* greater 
sales and produci popularity than the 
quality of the [mxlucts themselvte. 
Only in America! 

Final ly , the paparazzi, the journal- 
ists and photographers, pummel the 
public with what they regard as im- 
portant and newsworthy. Sometimes 
we're even told what to think. 

Unfortunately, the American pub* 
lie generally accepts their offerings 
of propaganda and images with little 
critical evaluation; like buffoons, we 
foolishly believe to a large degree 
exactly what we are told. 

While we're being distracted by 
the flash and form of the rich and 
famous, items of true consequences 
go almost unnoticed. CelebritiM, ath- 
letes and criminals seem to make the 
headlines and the real hooes and 
heroines are seldom even acknowl- 
edged. That's the real tragedy. 

As Americans, we truly have much 
to "celebrate" on April Fools' Day; 
perhaps we ought to observe April 
Fools' Month. 

We can begin to come to grips with 
our national imprudence simply by 
being aware of our foolishness. 
Chuang-Tzu, a Chinese Taoist phi- 
losopher (c . 300 8C), had some words 
of encouragement: "TTiose who real- 
ize their folly are not true fools." 

Perhaps our national situation is 
not without hope.

BANNER YEAR. Turtle Bay, time-share condominiums being con- 
structed on 6th Street betvwen Atlantic and Pacific avenues, is one 
sign of growtfi at the Beach. 



1997 record tourism 
year at the Beach 

Continued From Page 1 

$527 million, plus $569 million 
in indirect spending totaled 
nearly $1.1 billion in visitor 
^)ending in the region. 

Employment also received a 
boost as 11,438 direct jobs and 
5,776 jobs were supported in the 
region as a result of the record- 
setting year. 

"I think it was a remarkable year 
— everything was up," said James 
R. Ricketts, directs of the Depart- 
ment of Convention and Visitor 
Development. "The weather was 
perfect, the product is changing, 
and people are returning because 
they like what they see." 

For example, Canadians are 
coming back in record numbers, 
Ricketts said. 

In addition, 75 percent of all 
tourists are repeat visitors and 80 
percent plan to come back. 

Ricketts expects that trend to 
continue with new hotel 
opportunities at 31 Street, 
Sandbridgeandan upscale hotel in 
the Pembroke area. There are also 
the Turtle Bay time-share 
condominiums going up on 7lh 
Street. 

"We are starting to hit the market 
niches," he said. "We're right 
where we should be." 

He also credited the sponsplex, 
area golf courses, and packages that 
offer day trips to special attractions 
such as the Virginia Marine 
Science Museum and Busch 
Gardens as big drawing cards to die 
area. 

Martha Grant, account supervisor 
for Barker Campbell Farley and 
MansHeld, also provided a glimpse 
of the marketing strategies die 
Virginia Beach uses to entice 
tourists. 

"We advertise good, clean family 
fun," she said. 

The colorful slick ads go in 
travel magazines, vacation guides, 
newspapers and on television. 



WHAT IF. With all the new con- 
struction going on in the resort 
city, middle school student Chris 
Bain poses an interesting ques- 
tion with a sculpture at the Con- 
temporaiy Art Center of Vii^nia. 

They promote Virginia Beach as 
"It's a lot like California. It's 
nothing like California." 

There is also a special promotion 
for Canadian visitors written in 
French and English. Canadians can 
come to Virginia Beach and their 
currency is "at par," Grant said. 

"They can come to Virginia 
Be^h and it isn't going to cost 
them anymore than in Canada," 
she explained. 

In keeping up with technology, 
the city will also soon have a web 
site where visitors can make travel 
arrangements. 

Officials say it is hard to predict 
the tourist season for 1998. 
Expenses are expected to go up and 
down. There will be added 
expenses Oiis year widi die new sea 
wall, new parking garage, hurricane 
protection plan, and maintenance. 
City official and businesses arc 
keeping their fingers crossed and 
hoping for anodier record year. 



Fund-raisers fake dive 



Continued From Paoe 1 

For instance, Virginia Beach- 
based Worrell Brothers Restaurant 
brought a team comprised of 
almost 20 staff members to die 
pool after work at 2 a.m. Saturday 
for a stint underwater, keeping 
Eubank and Widen occupied with a 
card game — fish. 

Worrell Brothers played such an 
active role in the event because 
restaurant founder Chris Wwrell 
died from |»ncreatic cancer. 

"For us to pull togedier for die 
memory of Chris Worrell was just 
natural," said Virginia Beach's 
Denise Montini, a waitress at 
Worrell. "That's why Worrell crnic 



out and made such a statement." 

Brigit Belcher's message was 
more subtle. About 10 percent ol 
die internist's patients have cancer, 
so she chipped in by collecting 
pledges topping $600. 

"I've never done diis before, and I 
treat so many people with cancCT," 
said Belcher, a Virginia Beach 
resident. "It's great to help a little 
bit." 

The event may have attracted 
more participants and raised moK 
money than last year because it 
stands apart from so many other 
fund raisers, according to Daisy 
Cohan, who works for the city's 
Department of Convention and 
Visitor Development.

Vigil remembers tiniest victims 



Contlnuod From Pag« l 

designated as National Child 
Abuse Prevention month and 
social agencies will be saturating 
the public with information on 
what abuop '<! tins for children, 
support and education for iKtrents, 
and die role of the community. 

"In diis area, we have the highjzst 
rate of abuse and neglect per c^ita 
in die state," Duggan said. • 

The reasons are similar to most 
of die county 

"We have a transient population 
here," she explained. "Many come 
here looking for jobs in a high- 
density resort area, and don't find 
the jobs of their dreams. Many are 
stressed out and some arc on drugs. 
And some carry on generational 
abuse." 

Unfortunately, Duggan's 
organization usually becomes 
involved after a child is abused. 
CAS A volunteers are court- 
appointed to be advocates for die 
children in court. The advocate 
interviews virtually everyone 
involved widi the child and reports 
back to the court. 

"We are diere to tell the judge 
objectively what is going on with 
die child," Duggan said. "It's a 
safety net for the child as many 
times the child is very young or 
very frightened. The volunteers are 
someone who can stand up in court 
and speak to the child's best 
interests." 

Duggan said prevention is die 
best cure for child abuse. She 



suggested community involvement 
by using the "good neighbor 
approach," and caring what happens 
in die community. 

"Be aware of the children mx)und 
you," she said. "For example, if a 
child is continually left 
unsupervised, you can call Social 
Services and don't have to give 
your name." 

In addition, Duggan suggested 
people offer to help dieir 
neighbors, such as a mother who 
needs a break from her children. 

"Offer to baby-sit for an hour," 
she said. 

Bill Boyce, recreation program 
coordinator for the Virginia Beach 
Department of Parks snd 
Recreation, also believes in 
community involvement and 
attended the candlelight vigil. 

"I love children," he said. "I run 
a before- and after-school 
playground program for 4,500 to 
4,600 kids." 

He recommends wholesome, 
structured activities for children. 

Boyce said his program is in all 
53 Virginia Beach Elementary 
Schools, offering activities two 
hours before school in the morning 
and from 3 to 6 p.m. after school. 
He also oversees a summer 
program for children. There is a 
modest cost for the program, but 
Boyce gave 1,100 fee waivers this 
year to parents who could not 
afford it. 

Terry Cantone, recreation 
specialist II and her two children 
Jason 11, and Christine 9, also 




IN MEMMY. Jason Cantone, 11, helps light candles for the Virginia 
children who died or were injured at the hands of their abuses. 



attended the ceremony. Jason and 
Christine helped light the candles. 

"It was sad," Jason said. 

Cantone explained die abusers to 
her children as "people who did not 
walk away and count to 10." She 
also urged people to be involved in 
die community. Even if someone 
is new to die community, they can 
still find die help and support diey 
need, she said. 



"Network with other parents and 
get involved widi the local school. 
There is lots of support out diere 
— all you have to do is ask," die 
said.

Let's face it, when it comes to car repair, 
too many folks take the "if it ain't broke, don't 
fix it" approach. Which probably explains why 
so many cars on the road today have shock 
absorisers or struts in need of replacing. 

That's because shock absorbers seldom 
"break". Instead, they wear out gradually over 
time. So gradually, that many drivers fail to 



realize just how worn their shocks have 
become. Well the fact is, driving around on a 
set of worn out shocks is just not safe. 

So keep that in mind the next time you're 
out and about. You might just want to drop by 
your local AutoZone and take advantage of our 
special "Buy 3, Get 1 Free" offer on premium 
GabrieP Gas Ryder* shocks and struts.

Handl-ride service taxing

Council concerned that misuse 
is driving up costs to the Beach 



By Lee Cahtll 

City Council Reporter 

The increasing use of handi-rides, the 
home pick-up service run by TRT 
(Tidewater Regional Transit), has 
esoiMod costs to the extent that 40 
percoMcrf' the city's public transportation 
subsidy is applied to handi-rides. 

That's $666,031 of the total $1.47 
local subsidy for mass transportation. 
Tliis represents a 29 percent increase over 
the current year. 

At a budget workshop Tuesday council 
expressed concern that the service, which 
has more liberal parameters in the beach 
than the law requires, is being misused 
by individuals which is driving the use 
£Uid the subsidies up. 

E. Dean Block, directorof management 
and the budget, however, diqjelied 
rumors that the service was being 
reduced. He said "nothing is being cut to 
my knowledge." 

He said, however, that the subsidy is 
more consumed by the handi-ride service 



Immunization 
project needs 
helping boost 

HOPE for Kids 
seelcs volunteers 

By Margaret WIndley 

Corraspondant 

HOPE for Kids could use a shot in the 
arm by way of a few good volunteers. 

On April 18 the organization leader in 
the push for childhood immunizations is 
holding a rally at Mount Trashmore for 
childhood immunizations. 

After a 9 a.m. pep rally with mayoral 
proclamations for Infant Immunizations 
Week, 400 volunteers will go out to 
canvas neighborhoods in Virginia Beach, 
Portsmouth, Norfolk, Chesapeake, 
Hampton and Newport News with 
important information about children's 
immunizations. 

"By the time children are 2 years old, 
they should have had five series of 
immunizations," said Kim Versage of 
HOPE for Kids. "They need them at 2, 4 
and 6 months, at 12 to 15, and 15 to 18 
months." 

However, she said, many parents don't 
keep their children's immunizations up to 
date. 

According to the last published study, 
the state's rate of childhood 
immunizations is 74 percent. The 
Virginia Beach rate is further down at 68 
percent. While low, these rates are much 
better than the national rate of 47 
percent. A new study with new 
information is coming out soon and may 
reflect higher percentages. 

Sm hope. F^s^ 8 



and has reached a point where the 
subsidized cost of a ride is $11, m 
increase of $5 from four or five years 
ago. 

Councilwoman Barbara Henley sakl 
she would like council to know what the 
criteria for qualifying for handi-rides are. 

Planning Director Robert Scott said 
that the city has an ongoing problem 
with handi-ride and the situation is 
getting worse all the time. 

He said that he would not recommend 
removing service from areas of the city, 
but "people are using the service who aro 
not eligible under the law." He said that 
the guicfelines are being reviewed to make 
sure the public cost is contained and the 
purpose ftilfilled. 

Mayor Meyera Obemdorf said she heanl 
from one source that one individual was 
using handi-ride to go to work. 

Henley said that the way the law is 
written para transportation has to be 
provided a certain distance from a fixed 
public transportation route. "We've 



always done far more than the law 
provides," she said. 

Block said the city has been extremely 
liberal and is searching a point where tlw 
service is tripling in cost. 

According to I^le Casicllow, 
transportation planner, in 1993 what 
Congress adopted the Americans with 
Disabilities Act, the Federal Transit 
Administration enacted new guidelines 
regarding the provision and operation of 
fixed route transit and parairansit services 
in metropolitan areas. 

The changes focused on particular 
areas, the first being regulations requiring 
all vehicles to be equi^jed with lifts and 
other devices intended to make them 
accessible for disabled riders and the 
second which prescribes minimum 
service levels for paratransit services. 
These regulations mandated that 
metropolitan transit organizations 
provide paratransit services within 3/4 
mile of any fixed bus route and maintain 
the same hours of operation as fixed 
route bus services. Also the paratransit 
riders must meet certain disability criteria 
and get^aphic requirements. 

A transfer of operations was intended, 
but this has not h^jpened according to 



staff research. For many people with 
disabilities urt»n/suburt»n bus service at 
current funding levels is a very difficult 
mo(te of transportation and the panatiansil 
van remains the only real option. 

Also, in most suburban communities, 
such as Virginia Beach, people do noi 
live within three-fourths of a mile trf a 
fixed bus route. Here, transit mates 
follow most major arterials in the 
northern half of the community and arc 
essentially nonexistent in the soudion 
half. 

Therefore, Council in 1994 
apfvofniated an additicmal $60,000 for 
handi-ride services in the "option" or 
non-mandatory service area which 
encompasses the entire city limits 
outside the three-fourths mile mandiHOfy 
service area. In Chesapeake, the optional 
service area is limited to certain sectkMB 
of the community. 

Castellow said that the total subsidy 
required for handi-ride has actually 
increased faster than the city's share but 
agency revenues have offset the costs. 
The total subsidy has increased 245 
percent versus 1 10 percent for the city 
share.

All hail the king! Neptune, that is

By Aune Kirk

Virginia Beach has a new king. 

He is still Joe Gianascoli to his 
friends and family, but King Neptune

official job is to reign over the 25th 
annual Virginia Beach Neptune 
Festival in September. The event 
draws about I million people to 
Virginia Beach and generates about 
$15 in economic impact for the city. 

"The festival originally began as a 
event to bring closure to the summer 
and chance to enjoy the last rays of 
sun for the locals," Gianascoli 
explained. 

"But it's grown far beyond regional 
to one of the biggest festivals on the 
East Coast. People come from 
Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, New 
Yoric and even Canada." 

Gianascoli said there are as many as 
65 events associated with the festival 
and activities for all ages. 

The festivities will begin with the 
1998 Neptune Festival Golf 
Tournament scheduled for May 20. 
Other events to follow inclu(tea black- 
tic affair, sports competitions, 
children's activities, a parade featuring 
the Philadelphia Mummers, an art

When retired public health nur^ 
Mary Pleva came to the Virginia 
Beach [k^artment of Public Health in 
1980, the best she could de^ribe it 
was "scattered." 

Services and lyog r a ns were offsw! 
in a hodgepodge of buildings l^re and 
there, often long rides from one 
tKHter. 

"It seemed very much like a rural 
health department because there was 
no basic administration building. 
Norfolk, in many ways, was mwe 
I»t)gressive at the time," she recalled. 
"It hi^ iKN been centrili»d ." 

When she retired in 1990, ierw% 
locations were still largely »:ttle^i 
thrwighout the r^tm city. 

But no mm. 



On Friday, PIcva was among 
department employees and retirees on 
hand to celebrate the opening of a 
centralized department. Newly 
relocated in the Pembroke Corporate 
Center III, Public Health occupies the 
first two floors of a thr^-story Iniilding 
at 4452 Cwp&moB L»m. 

The move represents the

Commentary 



CRIME LINE TELETHON 

'Paying' it safe 

A woman is murdered on a city street in late 
evening. Police know several witnesses were 
in the vicinity during the incident but haven't 
reported their sighting of the crime. 

A man is found dead slumped over the 
wheel of his car — the victim of foul play. 
Police have no leads. 

A gunman is targeting area convenience 
stores for armed robbery. Police have 
videotapes of the suspect in action yet no clue 
as to his identity. 

In all of these cases someone may have 
much needed information from which the 
police could benefit. The problem is that 
potential witnesses fear revealing their 
identities. 

Thanks to Crime 
Line, witnesses can do 
the law a favor and 
benefit from a cash 
reward, should tips 
lead to arrest, while 
maintaining anonym- 
ity. Rewards are paid 
from private donations 
to the program, never 
state or city funds. 

Success is proven. Over the years. Crime 
Line in Hampton Roads has resulted in the 
recovery of more than $23 million in stolen 
property and illegal drugs with a conviction 
rate of 97 percent of those arrested through 
Crime Line tips. 

Now is the public's chance to help the 
program in a different way. 

For the 14th time, civilian organizers and 
volunteers will gather with their police 
counterparts for the Greater Hampton Roads 
Crime Line Telethon. This year's broadcast 
will air Saturday from 8 to 11 p.m. on WVEC- 
TV 13. The program will be hosted be 
anchors Regina Mobley and Mike Lewis and 
will feature other Channel 13 personalities, 
along with local dignitaries. 

The annual broadcast is the centerpiece of 
financial support for Crime Line and Crime 
Solver programs throughout Hampton Roads. 
According to C. Jerry Franklin, telethon 
chairman, "Crime Line is paying tips to catch 
criminals 364 days out of the year. This one 
night makes all that possible." 

Last year's drive netted $97,000. which 
organizers hope to top Saturday. Dig deep 
and pay up to help Hampton Roads play it 
safe. — V.E.H.

Who cares about Virginia's cities? 



By Scott Bates 

Who cares about Virginia cities? 
If you care about the threat of gang 
violence, you should care about 
Virginia's cities. If you care about 
the increase of suburban sprawl and 
traffic, you should care about 
Virginia's cities. If you care about 
the disappearance of prime faim 
land, you should care about 
Virginia's cities. 

Speaker of the House of 
Delegates Tom Moss (D-Norfolk) 
has pushed for the creation of a 
commission to study the plight of 
Virginia's cities, and in the last 
session of the General Assembly, 
he won. A commission madeup of 
24 members, IS drawn from the 
General Assembly, has been 
charged with making 
recommendations for legislation in 
the year 2000. 

The project begins life with the 
not so catchy name "Commission 
on the Condition and Future of 
Virginia's Cities." It will examine, 
among other things, the state's 
annexation laws and funding 
formulas for state programs. 

In 1993, I had the honor of 
serving as chairman of the 
Commission on the Revitalization 
of Virginia's Urban Areas. Created 
with just one year left in the 
governor's term of office, we 
traveled to Roanoke, Norfolk, 
Richmond and Arlington to hdd 
open hearings and meet with the 
people on the front lines of the 
battle to save our cities. 

I rode with the Norfolk police 
one night and got an idea of the 
danger on many of the streets of 
our cities and the magnitude of the 
drug problem. I toured public 
housing that was not fit for human 
habitation. I saw living downtowns 



I rode with the 
Norfolk police one 
night and got an 
idea of the danger 
on many of the 
streets of our cities 
and the magnitude 
of the drug 
problem. 



that provided a positive example of 
how we can get our cities back on 
their feet. There was hope for 
renewal. 

What struck me most about the 
decline of our cities was the toll it 
took on the rest of Virginia. If 
Portsmouth and Norfolk lose 
businesses and have drug and crime 
problems, expect to see it in 
Virginia Beach five years later. 
Crime and drugs know no 
boundaries. If Roanoke's inner coie 
is dying, businesses and homes ave 
built in the outlying suburbs. The 
sprawl begins turning the valley 
into something beginning to 
resemble northon Virginia. 

Soon the suburban shopping 
malls and developments gobble up 
prime farmland and begin to price 
families off the land. The ch^acto' 
of Virginia begins to change, and 
not always for the better. 

Why should we care about saving 
our cities? Because we are all in 
this together. Decaying cities mean 
the rot will eventually seep into 
the suburbs and the sprawl will 
damage the character and lifestyle 



of rural Virginia. 

Our cities are worth too much to 
let fall by the wayside. They are 
home to tens of thousands of 
Virginians who are ready to 
contribute to this commonwealth. 
They just need an education, job 
training and a chance. 

We need a highly educated, 
healthy and motivated workforce to 
attract the jobs of the 21st century 
that will keep our commonwealth 
prosperous. The children of our 
cities are too important to our 
success to be left behind. 

The highways, roads, bridges, 
ports and airports of our cities ae 
too valuable to be left to crumble. 
The infrastructure exists fa* 
sustaining prosperity for a 
generation. Our grandparents and 
parents paid their tax dollars to 
invest in Virginia and we cannot 
let their efforts go to waste. The 
state needs to keep up existing 
infrastnicture. 

We must invest in the health care 
of the children of Virginia's urtian 
areas. They are under served and at 
risk. We must invest in the 
education of the young people of 
Virginia's urban areas. The fundirtg 
is separate and unequal. There is 
much that needs to be done. 

When I was chairman of tlie 
Urban Commission in 1993. we 
had no real estate money to invest 
in revitalizing our urban areas. 
Five years later that is no longer 
the case. 

Speaker Moss knows that the 
resources are there to make a real 
difference in the fight to save our 
cities and build a strong 
commonwealth. Now we will have 
to see if there is the political will 
present in the General Assembly to 
do the job. 



Spring is nothing to sneeze at 




Off The

By Victoria 
Hecht, editor 



Ah spring! 

The flowers areblooming, the trees 

are budding — mi the pdlen count 

is already skyrocketing. 
Welcome to April in Hampton 
Roads. 

As I write 
there is a 
handy sup- 
ply of tissues 
just within 
reach to 
catch the 
steady drip, 
drip, drip 
from my 
nose. The 
throat is 
hoarse, a mi- 
graine has

untold pres- 
sure on my 
already 
clogged 
haKl,and«>-

ccxistant sieezing. 
But, h^k, it's qving! Ain't it 

grand? 

I was talking to a PortaiKXith fel-

about his whole life, sa^ for a few 
early years in New Yak. Pdlm $»■

clothing hung outside to dry. A good 
rain does little to get rid of pollen and, 
in fact, encourages more. Walk 
through grass and you will emerge 
with yellow shoes. 

For those who suffer like myself, 
my mom and my friend in Ports- 
mouth, our solace is over-Uie-counter 
remedies and simply staying inside. 
An unfortunate few, like my good pal 
Dave, are subjected to a regimen of 
injections. Double ouch! 

Spring is a time to revel, but also a 
time to suffer. God gave us the beau- 
tiful foUage ami flowers to enjoy at 
their peak. And what 60 we do? We 
aieeze at ikmA-iiape the Man Up-

Speaking of spring, there's some 
taott imag»y that comes with it — 
bonny rabbits and Easter eggs.

The Real 
World 

By B.J. Ses- 
sions, senior col- 
umnist. 



What's good for 
the president is 
good for all 

What does U.S. District Judge Su- 
san Webber Wright's decision to dis- 
miss Paula Jones sexual miscraiduct 
claims against Bill Clinton tell you? 
It tells me 
that the com- 
mon Ameri- 
can citizen is 
held to a 
high^mwal 
standard 
than their 
presidait. 

It also tells 
me diat every 
man in the 
work place 
or any drill 
instructor in 
the military 
is now by law 
entitled to 
^— — ^^"^^ one free 
grope or re- 
quest for oral 
sex. 1 can just hear the defense law- 
yers now telling the judge: "But your 
honor, I cite the Paula Jones case 
where the president of the United 
States got a free pass. So why not my 
client?" 

Good question. Every military man 
or woman who has been punished for 
anything to do with sex, except rape, 
should be placed back on duty with 
back pay. Their commander-in-chief 
has set the standardfor anything goes. 
If you like it, grab it TTie courts will 
dismiss it. Clinton has lied so much 
that it's hard to keep up with him. He 
lied about his draft deferments. He 
lied about his marijuana usage, say- 
ing he "did not inhale." He lied about 
Gennifer Flowers, then had to admit 
the truth under oath. 

He lied about his affair with former 
Miss AmericaElizabeth Ward Grjce. 
She says they had a one-night stand. 
He says Kathleen Willey is lying 
when she says that he kissed her, put 
his hands on her breasts and put her 
hand on his genitals. She swore that it 
happened under oath. He denied it 
under oath. 

Monica Lewinsky is on tape de- 
scribing her affair with Clinton. He 
denies it. Paula Jones swore that he 
dropped his pants in a hotel room. He 
denied it under oath and so it goes on 
and on. He cries that the press is 
against him, but the liberal press re- 
ally doesn't pin him down. 

In herbook "Passion and Betrayal," 
Gennifer Flowers says, "As we grew 
closer to each other (referring to 
Chnton) we naturally developed pet 
names for one another. I was his 
'Pookie' and he was 'Baby' or 'Dar- 
ling' to me. I often wonder if Bill has 
continued his womanizing ways now 
that he is in the White House." 

The answer to that question can be 
answered with a resounding "yes." 
Why doesn ' t Sam Donaldson ask him 
about that? 

When Wright said, "Although 
(Clinton's) alleged conduct, if true, 
may certainly be characterized as 
boorish and offensive, ev»i a most 
charitable reading of the record in 
this case fails 10 reveal a basis for a 
claim of criminal sexual assault." 

So now all you freaks and sex nuts 
are protected by that ruling. Have at 
it. 

Welcome to the real world.

Up close and personal 

%m Leahy: Qoodtoiht last drop 



By Victoria Hecht 

Editor 

"Water, water everywhere, but nary a 
drop to drink." 

When Tom Leahy was hired by the city of 
Virginia Beach in 1980 to study alternative 
water supplies, the long-time resident knew 
he could take a cooling dip in the ocean 
any time — but washing his car was anotho- 
stay. 

In a city whose very livelihood is based in 
large part on the salty Atlantic's ability to 
draw tourists, the inability to provide a safe, 
endless fresh water supply was ironic. 

Today, of course, millions of gallons daily 
flow through the Lake Gaston pipeline. Had 
it not been for the Water Supply Project 
team with Leahy as its manager, Virginia 
Beach might still be thirsting for relief. 

All that is in the past. Now all Leahy 
needs to do is pull up a computer screen to 
view the pump station in Gasburg, where 
Virginia's Beach newest water supply 
begins its 76-milc journey. 

"But the reason the city has been so 
successful is that we take a personal, 
intensive role in the project On the average 
of every seven to 10 days I go out there, 
visit the pump station, make sure the 
grounds artd facilities are being maintained, 
and drive on top of the pipeline route," 
Leahy explained. 

"It would be easy sometime to forget 
about doing all that and just turn on the 
computer. But if you want the project to last 
50 or 100 years or more, you have to make 
sure it's being maintained properly." 

For the first time in about 20 years, 
Virginia Beach will not have to worry about 
drought 

"For about half the years since 1976 to 
1997, we were under some sort of water-use 
restrictions," Leahy reflected. "People did 
adapt, but the fact of the matter is that 
washing your car on a Sunday afternoon is 
like an American pastime. People in 
Virginia Beach have always been water- 
wise and ought to be able to do that (wash 
cars) without having government look over 
their shoulders." 

Leahy, who was recently recognized as 
Engineer of the Year by the Tidewater 
Chapter of the Virginia Society of 
Professional Engineers, says that Hampton 
Roads' popularity as a commercial, 
residential and military hub can be credited 
to its watery surrounding. Those same 
surroundings mean a less-than-adequate 
drinking water supply for the burgeoning 
population. 

"We have the intersection of the James 
River. Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic 
Ocean, which forms a huge, deep warm 
water port that is important to the Navy. The 
Navy has two major installations — San 
Diego, Calif, and Norfolk. Everything else is 
a very secondary installation. 

"The reason people come here is 
commercial fishing, the port, the ocean. 
Those are the same reasons why we don't 
have a lot of fresh water — we're a flat 
estuary. The reasons that create the 
population are the same reasons we don't 
have large supplies of fresh water. That's 
just the way it is," he explained. 

A tough sell to Lake Gaston area residents 
from the start, the Water Supply Project and 
the state of North Carolina fought the 
project in court for years. Since the 
pipeline's dedication last year, however, 
Leahy feels Virginia Beach has made some 
inroads. 

"These were basically people who were 
used to getting their way, usually the 
captains of industry or that kind of thing. A 
real tough sell. We're slowly making friends 
out there, and the city is supporting their 
fire and rescue squads." 

The battle, however, is not over. Virginia 
Power, which owns Gaston, is up for a 50- 
year federal licensing renewal in 2001. 

"During that process everything is looked 
at. However, we don't believe that the 
federal agency, after granting us the right to 
build this project and investing a quarter of 
a billion dollars, would change its mind," 
he said. "We can't predict the future, but 
we are confident that North Carolina will 
not be able to misuse the project that way." 
Leahy, who worked in de-salting and 
ultra-pure water applications before joining 
the city, believes the biggest story with the 
issue has not been the pipeline. Instead, he 
says it was City Council's courage to stick 
with its guns on Gaston. 

"In the end you take people like me — 
engineers, {n-ofessitmal ^cretaries, lawyers, 
city administrators — and we were all doing 
our jobs. Buy City Council members were 
the ones who had to suffa through elections 
year after year and run for office on the 
heels of a summer with no water. The big 
story has been a City Council that 15 years 
ago said 'OK, enough is enough. We have 
to make a nand and so for it' Ttey nev» 
locAed back. TTicy iKver weatoiwi.''

HOPE for Kids needs a boost 



CofrtbiuMl ^om ^« 1 

"The goal is to get a ninety 
percent rate for immunizations by 
the year 2000," said Versagc. "That 
is the president's goal and ours. 
The Columbia Study said that 
HOPE for Kids has proved 40 
percent more successful than any 
other outreach." 

The organization participated in 
the President's Summit on 
Volunteerism in Philadelphia last 
year and wants to meet die 
president's goal of volunteoism. 

"We are right behind him in his 
efforts on that," Verss^e said. 

Volunteers will be armed with 
packets of information, including 
two coupons for free shots, a 
coloring book from the Virginia 
Department of Health, a schedule 
of places within the cities to go for 
immunizations, a brochure called 
"Shots for Tots" that desaiTjes 
esome diseases and their symptoms, 
and a flyer about hq)atitis B, a 
disease that is more easily spaad 
than AIDS but is easily curable if 
caight. 

Befoc sending out the volunteers 



on April 18 they will need to 
attend a Gaining session on April 
14 before at 7 p.m. in Virginia 
Beach to familiarize tl^mselves 
wid) the information. 

Tlw five sets of series include 
immunizations against the "Big 
10" diseases — hepatitis B, 
diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, 
polio, Hib disease, measles, 
mumps, rubella and chicken pox. 

During the day while the 
volunteers are canvassing 
neighborhoods and hoping to link 
the children and their parents to a 
health care provider, mobile health 
vans will be at Mount Trashmore 
providing immunizations to those 
children whose parents bring their 
immunization records with them. 

With its beginning in 1993, 
HOPE for Kids is a national 
organization with programs in 
approximately 60 cities. This is 
the second year that the local 
ch^t»^ has been in existoice. The 
group performs a variety of other 
community-friendly activities. 

Last Christmas they held a drive 
which provided toys for the 



CANDII House, Union Mission 
and Social Services. In February, a 
serve-a-thon in February raised 
money for IBoptions^tnd orphans. 
Instead of walking, members 
pledged their time to the 
community performing activities 
such as cleaning the local health 
clinic. 

"All money raised went to the 
orphans and the adoptions," said 
Vcrs^e. 

Although the April 
immunizations drive is their 
biggest |nt)ject, another later drive 
is being considoed for this fall. 

To encourage immunizations, 
HOPE for Kids has framed 
collaborative partnerships with the 
fed^Bl and state governments, local 
health departments. Centers fra- 
Disease Control and Prevention, 
health care providers, and key 
corporations. 

In 1996, more than one million 
children were personally ctmtacted 
and several thousand were 
successfully immunized because of 
the combined efforts of the national 
HOPE for Kids. Nationally there 



are more than 30,000 waive 
volunteo's. 

HOPE for Kids is woiking with 
the Consortium for Infant and 
Child Health (CINCH). Project 
Immunization Virginia (PIV), 
Social Services, Virginia Beach 
Health Partners, Hampton and 
Portsmouth coalitions and the 
Virginia Beach Health Department 
to target neighborhoods in each 
city. The heaviest canvassing is 
expected to be in Virginia Beach, 
Portsmouth and Norfolk. 

The local HOPE for Kids 
program eventually plans to cffa 
the HOPE for Kids MIA (Missed 
Immunization Appointments) 
program to track the immunization 
rate of under served children from 
infants to two years old. Through 
this program, immunization rates 
for children in this age group have 
increased in 20 cities throughout 
the United States. 




For more information about 
HOPE for Kids or to sign up for 
the training session call, 456- 
1547.

Hopefully, they can get

The department celebrated the 
move with an open house and 
ribbon-cutting ceremony just in 
time for National Public Health 
Week, April 6-12. Mayor Mey era 
Oberndorf was on hand to 
present a proclamation honoring 
the observance. 

"Now the department has its

she noted.

Handi-ride budget taxing 



Continued From Page 1 

TRT had suggested that some 
reduction in paratransit services 
would be necessary to get within 
its budget, but has since realized 
that reducing the service was 
inappropriate in light of the 
inadequate public notice given. 

Councilwoman Reba McClanan 
noted that once a service is in place 
it's hard to recall 

Councilwoman Louisa 
Strayhom, a member of the TRT 
Commission, said Uiat aU cities are 
doing more than the law mpmes. 
She said here, the di^aiK^e people 
have to travel adds to die cost 

She said the city needs to make 



sure that die people who use die 
service really need it. She said there 
was a great deal of concern when 
Uie regular buses were fitted for 
handicapped access. TRT adapted 
all its buses but now they are not 
being used. She said she has a 
concern about the people who are 
using handi-ride who could use 
buses. 

I^yor Obondorf said that it is 
difficult for even able-bodied peofrfe 
to get to the main lines. 

Councilman John A. Baum said 
that die attitude of the ADA is 
unfortunate. It's do diis with no 
concern for die cost 

Henley saidUie buses have to be 



maintained whether or not they are 
used and that it would be 
interesting to know how many 
people use die adapted buses. 

AJccordingto Castellow's reprat, 
staff and riders have suggested diat 
the program is abused as potential 
riders provide less than accurate 
infomation about dieir capabilities 
to ride other types of services. 
There are stories of allegedly 
legally blind riders calling their 
paratransit drivers back to dieir 
residence so they could search die 
van for dieir car keys. 

In light of the rising costs and 
related problems, die commission 
is considering a recertificadcMi 
pn^ram of users. 



All hail King Neptune!

school can go ahead as planned 



By Leo Cahlll

City Council heeded the pleas of 
officials and patrons of the W.T. Cociat 
Elementary School, the city's dd^ 
school, and deleted a use pomit condition 
that would have required the planned new 
building to be moved back 20 feet to 
accommodate a neighboring church. 

Under consic^atioi by council Tuesday 
was an application for a use permit to 
close a portion of 15th Street from 
Mediterranean Avenue and running east 
325 feet. TTie part of the street that would 
be closed contains 16,250 square feet 

The school site does not meet the stale 
requirements for an elementary school, 
and state approval of the recoistmcted 
school hing^ on the school's acquiring 
the portion of 15th Street which divides 
tlw school site in half. A gate closes die 
street at Mediterranean anyway, said John 
Newhart, assistant city attoroey who 
serves as ScIkx)! Board atttvney. 

Newhart said that the church, the 
Pentecostal Church of Christ, had 
approached the School Board to purchase 
its property so that it could locate

Council 
weighs 
tax relief 
programs 

By Lee Cahlll 

CitvCoundlRfloortflf 

Some of the oldercilizens in Virginia 
Beach fmd themselves house rich and 
income poor as a result of increasing real 
estate assessments. 

While their houses may be worth more 
than ever, their incomes are static or 
lower than they were in the past. The 
higher real estate taxes charged on their 
more valuable homes put a drain (mi their 
resources making it difficult for them to 
remain in their homes where some have 
lived for a good part of their lives. 

Over the years, the city has tried to 
help these citizens remain in their homes 
by offering tax relief for the elderly, a 
program extended to the disabled as well 
where citizens who meet certain critoia 
are offered tax relief. 

One of the criteria is a cap of $22,000 
on in(X)me. Some council members have 
asked whether that cap can be raised to 
$25,000 so that more people can lake 
advantage of the ptjgram. 

If the threshold were increased to 
$25,000. E. Dean Block, director of 
management and budget, told council at a 
budget work session Tuesday it would 
cost Uw city from $260,000 to $400,000 
in tl» first year — currently $1 .626,000 
is currently ai^ropriated for the 1998-99 
tax relief budget 

Councilwoman Louisa Strayhorn said 
that with the city considering 
referendums for schools and libraries, the 
people over 65 would like to sec some 
balaiKx. TtKy are not against schools and 
lih-aries but would see taxes, which 
already have gone up beyond 
aff(»dability, go up further. 

Sm COUNai, Pag« 5 



duplexes soudi of 15th Street and plans 
to locate 25 parking spaces there which 
could be used by the church when the 
school was not using them. 

Newhart said the schools agreed to 
relocate the dumpsicr pad southwest of 
its current site so that it would not be 
visible from the front of the church, 
agreed to add a sidewalk on 14th Street, 
agreed to expand a cul-de-sac on 15th 
Street to allow for a standard turnaround. 
But he said the shifting of the building 
20 fe«t to allow for a 25-fooi buffer 
would create a problem. 

Tony Arnold, engineer for the School 
Board, said that the school system has 
made a;commodations for the church but 
diat shifting the building would require a 
redesign of the building putting the 
schools two to three months behind 
schedule. 

He said design of the school is 95 
percent complete, bids are expected to go 
out in June, and die completion date is 
set for January 2000. 

The students will be relocated in the 
existing Linkhom Park School during 
die construction. He said that the change 
would add 1,800 feet to Uie project atid 
increase the cost. The other Uiree accom- 
modations, he said, show that we're 
uying to be a good neighbor. The school 



has been there since aboui 1906, he said. 

Diane Gilllespie, president of the 
Shadow Lawn PTA said that moving the 
building would be a great hardship She 
said it wouldn't provide a better project 
She said the church is practically on the 
property line and delineates its prqwiy 
with a chain link fence and has not 
planted anything. She said there is 
plenty of room on the church and school 
sides for screening with the pre^nt 
plans. 

As for parking — the church has leed 
15th Street for parking — she said she 
noticed "abounding" parking on Easter 
Sunday. She said the parking lot acn^s 
from the church will more than offset the 
parking on 15th Stfcet 

She said she knew the planning 
commission was trying to malK 
everyone happy and said that the church 
had said it wanted 29 acres from die city 
for a new church or did not want the 
school built. She said the church also 
wanted die replacement coSL 

Craig Davis, who has taught at die 
school for 20 years, said it was time "our 
school had a face lift." He said he enjoyed 
the new gym built on die north side of 
I5th Street but it's time the classroom 
part had somediing new. 

Greg Anderson, school principal, sakl 



the church has been a waadaM 
neighbor, but die school already has die 
smallest campus in the city and a small 
lot has its drawt»cks. If the school is 
moved 20 feel it will be closer to a busy 
street. 

Changing at this late hour, he said, 
when the peq)le are so excited, would be 
a oagedy. 

Desi Allen, pastor of die church, saki 
he wanted to see Cooke built but does 
not want to see his church ruii^in die 
process He said the major issue is that 
the route leading to die church will be 
cut off and the visibility of the church 
will be cut off from Mediterranean. He 
said the remaining 15th Street will 
become a losing and unloading zone, 
and as for the parking, churches don't 
just do business on Sundays. 

GrowUi of die church will be hindered, 
he said, and "If the project hinders our 
building, somebody will be liable here." 
Beach Borough councilman Lmwood 
Branch said that it looted like a net ^ 
in parking slices to him, and that die 
school project has been embraced with 
enthusiasm. 

Council voted unanimously to 
approved the street closure with die 
omission of the condition that wouki 
require shifting die building. 



SEAL takes ultimate challenge 
for cerebral palsy fund-raiser 

Beach man is 
tad<ling Beast ~ 
of the East solo 

By Victoria Hecht 

Editor 

Andy Scott is used to putting his 
body to the test 

As a 10-year veteran active duty 
Navy SEAL, the Virginia Beach man 
has made a career of pushing himself 
to the physical limits. 

But the ultimate challenge will 
come this summer when Scott 
participates in his fu-st Beast of the 
East competition. 

The intense five-day trek dirough 
the Allegheny Mountains of Virginia 
will challenge competitors widi the 
most extreme mental and physical 
conditions — biking, hiking and 
canoeing non-stop for 300 miles. 

Most people take die challenge in 
teams of dvee. Scott is going it alone. 

Well, almost Widi him die Chick's 
Beach resident will have the 
motivation of his oldest child, 16- 
year-old Derek, who has cerebral 
palsy. 

Scott, 34, is undertaking Beast of 
the East to benefit United Cerebral 
Palsy (UCP) of Southeastern 
Virginia. His goal is $30,000. 

Matching the non-profit 
organization and natural 
competitiveness was a perfect fit fiw 
Scott. 

"I wanted to do an adventure race 
and have always been very athletic. 
Usually, I excel in Uiese types of 
events," he explained.

BE SIND TO MOTHER EARTH 

Environmentalism times 3 

'The Earth does not belong to man. Man 
beloT^s to the Earth. Man did not weave the 
web of life. He is merely a strand in it. 
Whatever he does to the web, he does to 
himself 

Chief Seattle 

Twenty-eight years ago, Wisconsin Sen. 
Gaylord Nelson proposed an idea that many 
people of his generation thought was off kilter 
— a day set aside to honor Mother Earth. 

Who would have 
thought two decades 
ago that Earth Day 
would evolve to the 
acclaimed status that 
it enjoys in 1998? But 
soon after the first 
recognition of Earth 
Day on April 22. 1970, 
two momentous 
occasions were cele- 
brated by environmental activists — the 
passage of the Clean Water Act and the 
creation of the Environmental Protection 
Agency. 

In 1998, Americans have three reasons to 
celebrate Mother Earth. And they're all 
within one week: Earth Day. April 22; Arbor 
Day. April 24; and Historic Garden Week, 
April 18-25. 

Because environmental awareness is still a 
relatively young movement, it requires the 
support of every man, woman and child on 
this planet. If you are doing your part to 
preserve the Earth for future generations, 
congratulations. If you aren't, you should be. 
No one is saying you have to launch a one- 
person war to save the planet. But if everyone 
were to pitch in with their small part, think of 
the possibilities. 

The easiest way to do your part is to 
practice the "3 R's" of environmentalism each 
day: 

■ Reduce — This one is easy dnd requires 
the least amount of work. When shopping at 
the store, consciously choose products with 
the least amount of packaging. Why take 
home several plastic bags when all purchases 
fit easily Into a canvas tote? Reducing waste 
output Is the key. 

■ Reuse — This one requires a little more 
work. It means saving plastic bags. If you use 
them, and giving them new purposes. Line 
waste containers with them or give them back 
to the supermarket to reuse. 

■ Recycle ^- This requires the most effort, 
but the paybacks are spiritually and 
financially rewarding. In Hampton Roads, 
where curbslde recycling Is encouraged by 
SPSA, there is no excuse not to. 

In one day alone, for example. 1.5 million 
pounds of consumer-related aluminum Is 
recycled by Reynolds Aluminum. This is the 
equivalent to more than 1.470 average-sized 
garbage truckloads of aluminum being 
diverted from landfill waste. 

There are ways to maximize a good impact, 
too. In honor of Arbor Day, why not plant a 
tree? To help celebrate Historic Garden 
Week, participate In a roadside clean-up 
program or start an Adopt- A- Highway project 
in your neighborhood. 

On Earth Day, do take the time to smell the 
roses — literally. Take a hike through one of 
our area's many regional parks, take part in 
Earth Day festivities at Mount Trashmore and 
consciously observe nature's glory around 
you. 

Take the opportunity to look, listen, smell 
and feel. You might Just get a sensory 
overload! — V.E.H.

Protect Virginia kids from tobacco 



By Scott Bates 

Wfien I served as Virginia's 
secretary of the commonwealth, 
one of my titles was "Protector of 
the Great Seal." I was in charge of 
making sure that the symbol Of 
Virginia was respected. 

When you take a look at the 
Great Seal, the symbol of our 
state, you will find tobacco leaves 
prominently displayed. That is how 
much a part of Virginia's heritage 
the leaf has been. 

Tobacco cultivation paved the 
way for the settlement of Virginia. 
For centuries Virginia has 
prospered from the farming and 
production of tobacco. For 
generations, tobacco has been part 
of the heritage and identity of our 
land. But change is on the way. 

Wc have learned over time that 
tobsK^co use can cause addiction and 
damage health. Advocates of 
tobacco will quickly point out that 
the same can be said of alcohol, 
and prohibition in that case did not 
work. Prohibition in the case of 
tobacco will not work either. All 
prdiably true. 

But we have learned a few 
lessons from the use of alcohol 
that can be affiled to tobacco, and 
Virginia needs to begin the 
sensible regulation of tobacco just 
as it has with alcohol. 

Alcohol is bad for kids. So is 
tobacco. It's just that simple. 

Here's the long explanation. 
Alcohol and tobacco can be habit 
forming and addictive. That's bad 
news when it happens because a 
physical dependency develops that 
harms health and in many instances 
can lead to premature death. 

In the case of those who ae 
addicted to tobacco, f»'emature death 
is painful and harsh. Lung cancer, 
throat cancer and heart failure are 
some of the fates that await today's 
children that are becoming addicted 
to tobacco as we speak. 

Adults can make up their own 
minds about alcohol and tobacco. 



Eighteen is the legal age for 
adulthood for a lot of reasons. We 
will not allow children to vote 
because they do not have the 
maturity or experience to make a 
binding decision on our 
governance. 

We will not send children off to 
war because it is not mcn-al to put 
them in harm's way before they 
have had a chance to live. 

We do not allow children to 
purchase alcohol because we know 
that they do not have the maturity 
to make an informed decision on 
using this drug. We do not allow 
children to buy tobacco products 
for the same reasons. 



Alcohol is bad for 
kids. So is tobacco. 
It's just that 
simple. 



The only problem is that 
Virginia is not serious about 
enforcing the laws that protect 
children against tobacco. It's time 
for us to get tough. 

Former Gov. George Allen 
assembled a task force on tobacco 
with the mission of reporting to 
the General Assembly ways in 
which to deal with this difficult 
issue. The results are in and now 
Gilmore should accept the advice of 
the Allen panel. 

The task force recommends that 
the Virginia Alcohol Bevoage 
Control Board be given the 
authority and resources to enfcHce 
the laws which make tol^cco sales 
to children illegal. Theirs is a 
modest proposal, increasing the 
number of agents available to 
V ABC by 32 and dedicating their 
time to the enforcement of the law. 

The cost is $5 million, which 
really is a small price to pay to 



enforce the I%w and protect our 
children. 

There is another more practical 
reason why Virginia needs to start 
enforcing the law. Federal health 
care funds are tied to the 
commonwealth achieving higher 
compliance rates. In September, 
undercover agents were successful 
in making illegal tobacco purchase 
17 percent of the time. 

Under the proposed fed^ 
tobacco settlement, that rate must 
come down to 10 percent in cnfcr 
for Virginia to get its fair share of 
tobacco settlement money that is 
devoted to health care. So our 
choice is clear — enforce the law 
or lose health care money. 

The task force developed a soies 
of proposals that should all be 
acted on by the govenun- and signed 
into law within the next month. 
The task force wants to outlaw 
cigarette vending machines excqn 
in places where no one younger 
than 18 can enter. Photo ID's 
should be required of anycme 
younger than 27 who purchase 
cigarettes so that there is no room 
fbroTor. 

We should also lower the 
standard under which vendors can 
be {nosecuted for selling cigarettes 
to minors. 

Virginia should also consido' 
licensing cigarette vendors much as 
we license those who sell alcohol. 
By taking these simple steps we 
will begin to make real progress in 
taking tobacco away from our 
children and concentrating on the 
well being of those Virginians who 
grow and produce tobacco. 

We ne&d to protect the kids and 
make sure that hard working 
Virginians are not punished for 
practicing the profession of their 
fathers.

Virginia Secretary of State. He 
comments weekly on- state 
politics.

Nothing brings out the urge to tend

I normally ta;kle the job the day

should be at its very cleats before

A third trick is to go through die 
house with a laundry basket and pick 
up all diose loose odds and ends dtat 
get out of place. Then stash die basket 
in a closet where no one will see it 

The final trip is my favorite, one I 
practice religiously. 

Because a tmst^s need only give 
die impressive of an immaculate 
house, tfiere's no reason for guests to 
see ev»y room. I call it OTganized

By keeping visitors limited to only 
a few nxmis — den, kitchen, dining/

there's no reason why the rest of die 
home can't be in utttr chaos.

yeai^ ago and had thoughtabout from 
time to time and dien read about it in 
a magazine 
diathasadif- 
ferent ver- 
sion than die 
one you re- 
member. My 
knowledge 
of die event 
is firsthand 
compared to 
an article I 
read writtoi 
Ity Francis A. 
O'Brien fw 
World War 
II, a maga- 
zine to which 
I subscribe. 
— ~— — ^— " In the ar- 

ticle O'Brien 
writes about 
die Battle of Saipan and his uncle, U. 
Col. William O'Brien, an Army of- 
ficer with the 27di Infantry Division. 
He was awarded the Medal of Wsmx 
posdiumously. It would have been a 
beautiful story if O'Brien had stopped 
diere, but he chose while honoring 
his uncle to denigrate die honw of 
one of the most colorful and best- 
loved heroes in America's war widi 
Japan. 

His name is Holland M. "HowUn 
Mad" Smidi, Unit^ States Marine 
Corps. In 1944,theMarinesand Army 
were assigned die t|isk of taking 
Saipan. In short, die 27th Army In- 
fantry Division lOSdiand lO&h Regi- 
ments were under die command of 
Major Gen. Ralph C. Smith. Overall 
command of the amphibious landing 
was the responsibility of Marine Lt. 
General Holland M. Smith. 

The unfortunate part of all this is 
diat die Army was just not trained as 
well for amphibious warfare as die 
Marines. There was trouble from die 
start. They just couldn't pull dieir 
load. This was later admitted to by 
Army General Smidi himself and 
some of his own officers. 

Marine General Smidi became so 
concerned Uiat he discussed it with 
the commander of die Fifdi Fleet, 
Vice Admiral Raymond Spromice, 
who audiorizo] and dirKted Marine 
General Smidi to relieve Major Gen- 
eral Ralph M. Srfiith from command 
of die 27di Division. Robert Shenod 
in die SepL 1 8, 1944 edition of Time 
magazine claimed diat dw 27th Divi- 
sion had frozen in their foxhoksnidisr 
than attack the enemy at Saipan. 

According to Sherrod, Army Gen- 
eral Ralph Smidi tad condoned dieir 
cowardly conduct 

I'm sure diat I^ancis O'Brim db- 
tained die material forhis article frcMn 
die 27di Division HisKuian and odier 
sources favorable to die 27th Divi- 
sion. 

I obtained my infcMmationdirecdy 
from die moudis of monbos of die 
27di Division when diey returned to 
Espiriui Santo after dwy were re- 
lieved from Saipan. They were 
ashamed, confused, frightened and 
tired. 

In referring to diis officer's con- 
duct at Saipan he said, "Frankly, die 
man appeared to be muddled." In his 
article O'Brien criticized Marine 
General f 'Howlin Mad") SmiUi, bitt 
bodi die Army and Marines know 
what happened at Saipan andO'Brim 
can't change diat 
_, Welcome to die real world.

Community Color Project 
brightening landscape 




The 

Mayor's 

Report 

Maya- Meyera 
Obemdorf 



I would like to report to our citi- 
zens abouta new pilot prognun which 
has been initiated to enhance road- 
way aesthetics in our city. This new 
initiative 
called the 
"Community 
Color 
Projojt" has 
resulted in 
signiHcantly 
enhanced 
landscape 
ueadnentfOT 
twolocatk»is 
on Princess 
Anne Road 
and a part of 
Northmnpton 
Boulevard. 

Members 
of a Virginia 
Beach Beau- 
tification 
Commission 
subcommit- 
tee conducteda 
com{Hehensive review of city aes- 
thetics, funding for appearance-re- 
lated programs, and related ordi- 
nances to determine where commu- 
nity aesthetics might be enhanced. 
The monbers interviews key city 
staff, whose responsibilities include 
aesthetic programs and issues, such 
as the director of plpning, director 
of public works, landscape services 
administrator, city arborist, parks and 
recreation facilities planner and odi- 
ers. 

While I understand there was a 
general consensus among the sub- 
committee members that much has 
bera accomplished in theaiea of C(Mn- 
munity aesthetics, it was felt diat the 
appearance of thecity's busiest roal- 
ways could be enhanced With mctfe 
intensive landscaping. Our city does 
and has for a number of years in- 
cluded in its Capital Improvement 
Program speci& funding for land- 
scaping for major roadway corridors 
which has insured that all major road- 
ways throughout the city are land- 
scaped afto' completion. 

More recently, we have designated 
to major roadways as privities in 
terms of a higher level of landscape 
treatment; Independence Boulevsurd 
from Jeanne Street to Pembroke Bou- 
levard and MiUtary Highway firom 
Chesapeake city limiu to the Norfolk 



This mtne intensive huidscqnng 
has {XDvided screening and bofSmng 
to reduce the mpta. of diese ex- 
pmcted roulway ccHridos on adja- 
cottneighbothoods. In addition, more 
interest, variety and seasonal cokH- is 



provided with both landscape 

liie Virginia Beach BeauliAil Com- 
mission subcommittee, with the as- 
sistance of city staff, developed sev- 
eral landscape design concepts and 
their costs. The subcommittee then 
selected a number of candidate rx>ad- 
ways throughout the city fw an en- 
hanced level of landsciqje treatment. 
City Council was then asked and 
agreedtofiindSlOO.OOO in the Capi- 
tal Improvement Program for this 
pilot program. 

The project locations selected were 
on Princess Anne Road from 
Newtown Road to Comancte Road, 
Princess Anne Road at L^kspur 
Middle School and Northampton 
Boulevard from Wesleyan Drive to 
Diamond Springs Road for well over 
a mile of enhanced landscaped road- 
ways. After additional input from Uie 
subcommittee membo^, the Land- 
sc^ie Services Division fmalized the 
landscaped design plans for the 
project areas and arranged for instal- 
lation of the plant materials. 

The designs included plant materi- 
als that will provide interest, variety 
and color over 1 2 months and are low 
maintenance and drought tolerant. I 
would in viteourcitizens to drive past 
these pro^t areas which are espe- 
cially colorful at this time. The project 
locations are identified with "Com- 
munity Color Project" signs. 

In Edition to the Landscape Ser- 
vices staff assistance for die actual 
planting on Princess Anne Road 
project site, I am pleased to note that 
assistance was provided by Mr. I^t 
Bridges, president of the Virginia 
Beach Beautification Commission, 
Admiral Tom Ward, Chairman of the 
Commission's aesthetic subcommit- 
tee, Mrs. John Miller, the 
Commission's Arbor Day Chairper- 
son, as well as Council Lady Nancy 
K. Parker, and 1 would like to thank 
them for their enthusiasm and dedi- 
cation. 

Because of the success of this pilot 
project, I and the City Council have 
agreed to consider an additional 
$100,000 for next year's Capital Im- 
provement Program. We value the 
pstneiship and close wmking rela- 
tionship that was qqsarent during the 
development of this pilot jHogram 
and we kx)k forward to the Virginia 
Beach Beautification Commission 
members again working with ihe city 
staff in selecting other roadway 
project areas for new landscape 
plantings next fall.

services administrator, contributed

Up close and personal 

'David Sdnw-ns: lending a way of lift 



By Victoria HecM 

E<fitor 

Virginia Beach's Man of the Year in 
Agriculture was raised in Creeds just a 
Stone's throw from the place that he now 
calls home. David Salmons not only tends 
the land, but is carrying on a family 
tradition of farming that goes back for 
generations. 

"My dad was a farmer, my grandfather 
was a fanner, my great-grandfather was a 
farmer — they say as far back as the 1600s 
we were farming. My ancestors came across 
from England and settled about three miles 
from here. It's all I've ever known, never 
had a job other than farming," he said. 

Salmons' three brothers and his father all 
make a living from agriculture-related 
enterprises and live within miles of each 
other. 

"When I was in high school, and even 
before Uiat, we all worked with Dad helping 
him out. We even had a little/partnership 
going back dien, until we all branched out 
and went out on our own," he explained. 

One brother brokers grain, another does 
custom fertilizer and seed, and third works 
closely with their father, Howard. Salmons 
raises 11,000 to 12,000 hogs per year in 
Virginia Beach and grows about 600 acres 
of wheat, com and soybeans in Chesapeake. 
"Dad has always been into row crop 
farming — it was and still is his main 
enterprise. As we boys got to the age where 
we would be going off to college or work, 
we knew there wouldn't be enough land to 
go around for all of us. So we got into the 
hog business," Salmons said. 

"That's the partnership 1 was talking about 
before. When I came back from college 
(N.C. State), die partnership started to split 
up. It eventually wound up that I was the 
only one in the hog business. I've been in it 
ever since." 

In 1983, Salmons purchased a parcel d 
land in Chesapeake to pursue his first love 
— row crop farming. The com he raises 
feeds his hogs and supplies two other hog 
operations. 

"The hogs are still the bread and butter. 
They pay the bulk of the bills," he 
explained, adding the hogs are sold directly 
to GwaltneyA-utcrs in Smithfield for 
processing. 

Salmons is the 31st winner of the Man dL 
the Year in Agriculture Award. The honor 
was presented during a banquet at the 
oceanfront The recipient is selected from a 
committee comprised of previous winners, 
said Virginia Beach Department of 
Agriculbire Director Lou Cullipher. 

Salmons admits to being taken aback by 
the accolade. 

"I'm not young anymore!" he chuckled. 
"Next year I'll be able to put someone m 
the spot, which will be nice. 1 guess they 
look for someone who has done some work 
in the community and, of course, farmed 
and been successful at iL" 

Salmons lives and works by a simple 
philosophy: "You take what you can get. 
That's something you cjui't change." 

He believes in treating employees fairly 
— he has about eight people — and 
complimenting them when they've done a 
good job. And he knows the formula to 
succe^ul farming is lots of hard work. 

"Farming is not something where you can 
get up at 8 or 9 in die morning. You do have 
to put in a lot of time or you'll never make 
it. With the weather die way it is, you have 
to work widiin time frames. It's raining this 
week and next week, so you've only got a 
couple of days in there to get woric done. 

"You have to be ready to go when the 
time is available, because tomorrow may be 
too late." 

A graduate of Kellam High School, 
Salmons is director and vice president of 
the Virginia Beach Farm Bureau. He is also 
a deacon at Oak Grove Baptist Church.

Lynnhaven DAR helps 
new U.S.A. citizens 



ByUIYoiWll 

ClubCorrMOtwdant 

The Lynntavra Fviih OaqMer 
Daughters of the American 
Revolution (DAR) arranged a 
welcoming coemony f(s newly- 
nttufalized citizens this week. The 
event was held in The Walt^ E. 
Hoffman United Sutes Cowt 
House in Norfolk with Judge J. 
Calvitt Clarice Jr. preskiing. 

Before adminittoing ^ Oath of 
Citizenship, the judge asked eadi 
of the 71 can(Udaiesto state his 
name uidthe country from which 
he came. The names ai more than 
25 nations rang out — Mexico, 
Uruguay, Portugal, Nigeria, the 
Philippines. India, Ecuador. 
Bolivia, Turkey, South Korea, 
Cambodia, J^moi, Trinidad, Ibuna. 
Taiwan, the Dominican Rqmblk, 
Australia, Bangledesh, Omda, 
Panama, Israel. Italy. Vietnun. 
Nigeria. Agania and Peru. 

The Naturalization Court is the 
final step in the process oi 
n at ur alization, but the acquisition 
of citizouhip is idso a 
commoicemenC the be^nning of a 
new life as an Amoican diizen. 
United States citizenship is a 
possessicm rqxesratii^the (keana 
and struggles of muy men aid 
women through more than two 
centuries. Tlie new citizen idedges 
his allegiance to the rniity «^ich is 
the strength of this nuion. and 
u:cepts the responsibility that goes 
with the privilege of c^ing 
himself an American. 

The Oath of Citizenship is not 
the flag, not to the govermnent. 
nor to the president, but to the 
Constitution. Similar oaths ane 
required for military or public 
service. But during die Bicentmnial 
of the U.S. Cooxiibtion, the late 
Warren E. Bu^r who served as 
chairman proposed a voliuKary 
oath, by which all citizens could 
exercise patriotism and publicly 



support te Conrttution. 

CottU you^ke sodi an C^h of 
Allegiance? "I do solemnly swear 
that I will lumKHt and defmd the 
Constitution oi the United Stfin 
against all enemies, foreign and 
donestic; and that I will well and 
faithfully discharge my duties and 
reqxmsibilities as a dtizoi of die 
United States." 

Following the Oath of 
Citizraship. Ae welcoming 
ceremony b^an. 

Tlw Vitdgfid Allegiance to die 
flag (tf die Uidted States was tod b^ 
Susan B. Hippen. Seniw Chitf 
USN and a member of die 
Lynnhaven Parish Chapter. 
Neiwlyn St^c. Regent of die 
Chqjter. faHnduceddie speaker. It 
was also aooMied that to become 
an American, one dwuld levn die 
history and traditions of dieir 
adopted country, improve diek 
English so that Uiey can beoct 
communicate, and exercise the 
vote. The chqHa is grateftd to 
Bemice King, election assistant 
from the Norfolk Registrv's 
OfRce. who met aft er wa itfawith 48 
who took the c^portunity to 
r^istff to vote. 

One of these new citizen was 
EUzabedi Villavi(»ncio, who came 
OTiginally from ManaM, Ecuadcv in 
South America. She has lived in 
die Unitn! States for 23 years and 
is a residrat of die Salem Lak« 
area in Virginia Beach. H» four 
chUdrai were bora here and so ae 
Americans. 

She has bero a singte modier for 
seven years. She add she was very 
haippy and planned to improve her 
Englbh. 

Then addec^ "I love diis country 
and its opportunities. To be an 
American citizen is to have your 
own family. If we love each c&itt, 
we will help each other. I have 
tried to teach my children to be 
goodcidzens."

CenUnuMl frtm Pag* i 

Councilman Louis R. Jones su4 
it's not that the older taxpayers 
object to paying taxes but to 
paying increased taxes because of 
hi^io assesanoits. 

"Oie city now offers relief in 
various kams — outright 
exemption on a gr»!uat«l scale, 
deforals of tax payment and a 
freeze Mtax^. 

But, said councilman HaroU 
Heisch(4)a'. the exemption is by 
far the most popular progrmn 
because it allows the property 
omwx to keq> his home without 
leaving d^oied taxes f(v his heir to 
pay- 
Also, Heischober said, the 
exemption turns out to the the 
les9» tax. The other ptoptaas are 
not used, he said. 

The criteria, in addition to 
income include net worth and 
other relative income such as the 
income of a relative living with the 
individual. The city has the legal 
flexibility granted by the State 
Code to raise the income, net 
worth and relative income 
exclusion thresholds. 

To encourage more people to 
take advantage of the freeze or 
deferral programs, councilwoman 
Barbara Henley said, the city might 
consider higher caps for those 
programs. 

Block said that for lower-income 
people, a flat exemption is • 
jneferaUe. For others, a freeze at a 



higher level will in'ovide an 
ORXMtunity not to pay more taxes. 

It is difficult, said Block, because 
of lack of current data todeiennine 
net worth. Under the current city 
program, net worth is capped at 
$70,000 to qualify {(x the ptogfwn. 
The current state limit is 
$150,000. 

Senate Bill 677 which awaits the 
governor's signature raises the 
income threshold for real estate to 
the greato- $52,000 of the income 
limits tased upon family size for 
the respective metropolitan 
statistical area annually published 
by the Department of Housing and 
Urban Development for qualifying 
for fedoal housing assistance aid 
the net worth limit to $195,000. 

Historically, the city has 
increased the thresholds to offset 
cost-of living increases for social 
security and private pensions. 
Social Security is now included in 
total income, but, Bkxk said, bills 
are before state legislators to 
eliminate that irclusion. 

Block said he would bring 
additional information to council 
to assist in die d«;ision making. 

The second part of the saaor 
housing report, which concons 
multi-family issues, reoMnmends 
finding the gaps in housing 
available to %ni(H^ and to provkle 
incentives to developos to help fill 
these gaps. '"'

Housing Committee which 
prepared the report, said that the 
goal is to encourage senior housing 
"but to make sure you get good 
senior housing." 

A major g^ in Virginia Beach is 
the availability of subsidized 
apartments for lower-income 
seniors. Currently there arc 367 
subsidized apartments in Virgbiia 
Beach for Iowa income older adults 
and these have waiting lists 
ranging fiom six to nine months at 
Bedi Shalom Sands and up to four 
or five years at Russell House. 

There may be even more that 
who need the facilities, said Henley 
chairman of the committee, but 
some give up after seeing the long 



waiting lists. 

Henley said she said that the use 
of the city's auxiliary grant 
program "bothers me a lot" 
Auxiliary grants are available from 
social services to low income 
seniors in a fixed i»yment amount 
for an assisted living unit and 
services of approximately $774 a 
month. 

But, in Virginia Beach, Marian 
ManOT is the only facility that will 
Kcept the auxiliary grants leaving 
clients to go to other cities to tdce 
advantage erf the grants. 

She suggested that homes 
willing to accept the auxiliary 
grants be allowed more density in 
exchange for |nx}viding four ot five 
auxiliary grant units. She said, in 
contrast to the grant, the private 
cost of assisted living units at 
$1,500 to $4,500 a month. 

She said that the hesitmcy in 
providing auxiliary grant units can 
be attributed to the additional paper 
work and the smaller amount (A 
income. She said that Marian 
N^uior, who allows clients to share 
rooms to reduce the cost is a good 
compromise. 

Kathleen O'Connor, with older 
adult services of the Community 
Service Board and a m«nber<rf the 
committee, said that some 
developos just don't know about 
the grants. 

Andrew Friedman, director rf 
Housing and Neighborhood 
Preservation, said that the staff 
intends to provide guidelines so 



tint devekjpers have ntKjre 
information before they start a 
project 

The committee finds that a 
density bonus is the method by 
whkh city council can mmt em\y 
provide an incentive for tlw typ« 
of senior tousing projects whidi 
the city has deckled it needs. Otfier 
incentives are providing dty-cwned 
land at a reduced cost, providing or 
supporting low interest financing 
such as develqpment bonds and 
outright fanu such as the ecoiKNnic 
^velopment investment prc^nm 
w other grants. 

The committee has recommended 
minor revisions to the zoning 
onlinance p^taining to mdependent 
senior housing, assisted living and 
nursing care facilities. 

The issues become more logent 
as the numbers of seniors in 
relation to the rest of the 
p(q)ulation continue to inoease. In 

1996 there were almost 34 million 
people age 65 and older in die 
United States (the Virginia Beach 
report uses 62 as the starting age); 
in 2030 there will be 70 million 
people in the age group. Many 
m«e (rf tomorrow's senicws will be 
vetyoM (85 OT older). 

In 1980. 4.5 percent of the city's 
population was age 65 «■ over, by 
1990 the number had increased to 6 
percent or 23.214 persons and in 

1997 an estimated 7.3 pNcentwoe 
65 and older. By the year 2002 an 
estimmed 8 pncent are e>q)ectedto 
be 65 plus.

Conthuisd From Pag* 1 

"I wanted to do an adventure 
race and have always been very 
athletic. Usually. I excel in these 
types of events," he explained. 

Scott initially wanted to lead a 
dir^-man team, but was unable 
to find two others with his 
physical and emotional stamina. 

"You have to look at the 
incredible training commitment 
for this, because the training 
cycle is more difficult that the 
race itself. And its ongoing. It 
takes aboal ax months to prepare 
f(s something like this." he said. 

This year's Beast of the East, 
set fa- June, is the first adventure 
race ever to have a solo category. 
Scott knew he couldn't do it. 
tiKMigh, without a good motivator. 



"I thought about what I would 
need after constantly moving fiv 
48 hours. 72 hours or 96 hours. 
What would I need to stay 
focused and keep going?" 

He continiKd. "I didn't have to 
search too far — my son, who 
has cerebral palsy. UCP is a 
good cause and a good 
OTganization. I could tie it in to a 
very personal goal. It was the 
motivation I needed." 

On New Year's Day, when 
most people were making 
resolutions to start exercising, 
Scou began his aix-day-a-wedk, 
four-to-six-hours daily regimen. 
His workouts consist of muscular 
strengthening and endurance and 
cardiovascular sessions. 

It's not uncommon for him to 
train for 24 hours around the 



clock, and part d his 
preparations will include a 
double ironman triathlon. ' 

In a typical training session 
Scott runs as much as 30 miles 
with a 30-pound pack on his 
back, then "cools ofP with a 75- 
mile mountain bike ride. 

All diis will prepare him for the 
biannual race sponsored by 
Odyssey Adventure Racing <rf 
Virginia Beach. 

Beast of the East, which begins 
June 21 at Clay tor Lake State 
Park in western Virginia, requires 
participants to Whitewater 
paddle, climb, rappel. mountain 
bike, hike and orienteer. They'll 
paddle class II/III rapids in the 
New River, climb the highest 
peaks in Virginia and bike along 
Appalachian Mountain trails. 



'This race is going to be one of 
die toughest challenges I've ever 
faced." said Scott. 

Scott is finding that getting his 
body ready for the rigorous race 
isn't the challenge. 

Raising $30,000 fw UCP is. 

Ah-eady he has secured sevo^al 
sponsors — Inside Out Sporu. 
North End Cyclery, Ocean 
Seafood Market, Eddie Bauer 
Inc., UDT/SEAL Association. 
Tracy's Oyster Bar. London 
Bridge Trading Co. and Extreme 
Sports — but needs more to meel 
his goal. 

"The thing is that people are 
solicited so often that many 
times their ears are just not op^ 
to it." Scou said. 

"How do you get folks who 
want to help? I may be wrong, 



but all the Mher teams diat have 
entered are racing for themselves. 
I'm racing for a cause. My whole 
life is consumed with training 
and campaigning for this." 



Those wishing to help Scott 
reach his goal of $30,000 fiar

make their check payable to 
UCP and mail to 5690 Greenwich

The organization has been 
meaningful on the personal as well 
as civic level. 

Sheila Ferguson, a former 
i»esident of the Jaycettes and 
Jaycee life member said. "It 
changed my life." The netwraking 
of people and the indivichial 
development offered by the 
organization have heightened Ikt 
sense of self esteem. 

"It's been things that I have used 
die rest of my life and I mean that

Although she left the 
organization when she passed die 
age limit, die friendships that she 
made during her membership have 
stayed widi her over the years.

organization has also been 
consequential for him. "It's likely

The unoccupied bed reflects some 
of the most personal issues in our

and deaUi. For many contemporary 
artists the subject of the bed 
remains an evocative metaphor. 

In the Contemporary Art CeMer 
of Virginia's "Embedded 
Metafrtior," die deliberate use (tf die 
vacant bed allows the exhflnt 
artists to comment on the ibseax ' 
of the body, representing loss or 
longing. The artists interpret die 
bed from a variety of perspectives 
ranging from the personal to die 
collective. 



Contemporary issues an

homelessness. Bed equivalents — 
sleeping bags, sidewalk gratings,

Young thespians 'shake it up' with stage classics 



By JaiwRowt 

The small elementary school 
stage is cluooed with a potpouiri 
of props, including bowls ci 
idastic firuiis. scrq» of material and 
a long steel pole. A young boy 
fiddles with a bolt m Uie pde for a 
few minutes, then runs off 
frantically in search of a 
soewdriver. 

Meanwhile, a tnidding actor is 
late for retearsal, and director Ann 
Russell Taylor calmly sends 
another student to check on him. 

"Sometimes it's 4 p.m. before 
we get stmed."shc explained. "It 
takes awhile for all of the kids to 
get here because they come firom 
diffnott schools." 

Finally, the children are all 
togetbo-. Taylor solicits the help of 
a parent who agrees to prompt the 
acuas, and rehearsal begins. The 
young boys reel and sing their way 
across the stage, doing a pretty 
good imitation of Elizabethan 
buffoons until one small boy gets 
a little too carried away with his 
acting. 

"William, you're way oveidoing 
it," Taybr gently chastises him. 

William resp^ids with die half- 
smile and twinkle in his eyes that 
made him such a natural to play 
the role of Puck, the mischievous 
fairy whose practical jokes made 
him arguably the most memorable 
diaracterin "Midsummer Night's 
Dfeam." 

Now William and his cohorts are 
rehearsing for their perfonnance of 
"The Tempest." Soon, the stage 
will become an island, the pole 
will be transformed into a ship's 
mast and the boys will have their 
roles as shipwreck survivors 
polished for public perfonnance. 
These kids, dressed in T-shirts and 
baggy shorts, are budding 
Shakespearean actors and nine-year- 
old William is one of the most 
experienced in the k)L

William, whose older si^er 
Adrianne will serve as narrator in 
the play, was only six when he 
played the role of Puck as pan a[ 
die Summer Shakes, a local theater 
group that performs at the Francis 
Land House during die summer. 

When he first started acting, he 
was too young to read well so 
Adrianne helped him learn his 
lines. Ifis cfflea* as a Shakespearean 
aoor has really Qken off and now, 
at the s(^histicated age of nine, 
he's ready to take on the part (rf 
Stephano, a clownish butler fimn 
•TheTempea." 

For Taylor, energetic kids, 
poles and Elizabethan terminology 
areall in a day's work. She headsa 
program designed to introduce 
young students to Shakespeare, and 
it's obvious that she loves her job. 
"By the time these guys ave 
grown, we should have some 
wonderful Shakespearean actors," 
she said. "So many people don't 
know how to approach 
Shakespeare. It requires a wlude 
different approach than modem 
drama." 

The desire to train young men 
and women to perform in 
Shakespeare's plays was one reason 
why Taylor organized "Shakespeare 
Goes Elementary" three years ago. 
As the founder and director of 
Summer Shakes, a non-i^c^it 
theater company, she sometimes 
needs children to act in her summer 
performances. It's nice to have a 
pool of experienced, highly 
motivated students to choose from, 
she said. 

Taylor's other reasons for 
organizing die program include m 
endiusiasm for theater, an affection 
for children and die desire to teach. 
She enjoys watching the kids 
discover how much fun acting cai 
be, and she said diat most of diem 
become avid Shakeq)eare fans. 
"I like it because it has a lot of 



child care providers. A CPR- 
registered instructor will teadi 
participants how to perfotm

expression," said Craig Hughes, 
who's playing Ferdinand in 'The 
TempesL" 

"John knew who Shakespeare 
was. and we'd read some of die 
children's stories based on his 
plays." said Judy Maravich, whose 
son, a Kempsville Meadows 
students, will play Sebastian in 
diis perfcnmance. But he wasn't a 
big fan of Shakespeare's before, 
and I diink he will be after this." 

The kids were rehearsing one 
recent day at Seatack Elementary 
School, but the students come 
from Friends School, Norfolk 
Collegiate, and Kempsville 
Meadows as well as from Seatack. 
Hieir play, a half-hour ^laptation 



of "The Tempest" will be 
performed at these schools later 
this month. 

Summer Shakes, a professional 
acting group, will also perform 
"The Tempest" and a spoof, "The 
Compleat Wkrs of Willm Shksjr" 
at the Francis Land House this 
summer. That group, like 
Shakespeare Goes Elementary, 
relies largely on corporate and 
individual sponsors and grants for 
funding. 

Taylor, a native of Suffolk 
who founded both groups, was a 
professional acU'ess living in New 
York when she decided to return 
home to Hampton Roads be close 



to her mother, who was sick. 
■ "I thought that I could wwk in 
the 'Shakespeare by the Sea' 
program," she said, "but diat was 
the year Uiat group foWed." So, 
she decided to form her own 
company and in 1993 Summer 
Shakes gave their first 
perfonnance, 'The Star Spangled 
Girl." Since dien, die peribnnaices 
have moved from the 24th Street 
Stage at the Oceanfrontto die 
Francis Land House, and the group 
has concentrated largely on 
Shakespeare's plays. 

"Shakespeare Goes Ekmentay," 
which is funded i^rUy by a grant 
from die Virginia Commission for 
the Arts, began three years ago. 
Other sponsors include Geico, aid 
Cox Communications tapes the 
perfomiaices. 

"And Beach Texaco and Century 
Food Mart have allowed use to put 
penny jars in their businesses," 
Taykr added. 

the students, who are selected at 
try-outs held at each of die schools, 
often become apptcaticesm die 
Summer Shakes program. Some, 
like William, are now old hands at 
this work, while Inand new actors 
and actresses are added each year. 
Performing Shakespeare's pk^ 
with young actors and within the 
confines of an elemoitary school, 
can be challenging. Taylor 
admitted. But she said diat 
Shakespeare's plays are wdl-suited 
for this sort of improvisation, 
since they were written to be 
pofonnedoatdoors and without die 
advantages of modem technok)gy. 

"The Tempest," of particular 
interest to Virginians because it 
was written about a Jamestown- 
bound ship that was blown off 



course and ended up in Jammca, "is 
really one of the most extravagmit 
plays," TaykM- said. "It was written 
not only for the Globe, but at that 
time they were also building m 
indoor dieater." 

But th^ plays often went on die 
road after they were performed at 
the Globe, and the actors were 
probably forced "to do a lot of 
mime" when pofomed outdoors in 
rural settings. Shakespeare cleverly 
adfpedto this, and his plays are 
full of descriptive passages 
designed b set the scene fcH- die 
audience. 

"He was constantly apologizing 
to die audtence, telling them to use 
their imagination and visualize a 
storm at sea and rolling waves," 
Taylor said. "We'll do that here, 
too." 

None of diis should be too hard 
with talented, spunky actors like 
WUliam. 

"I didn't have too much trouble 
playing Puck." he said with his 
characteristic twinkle. "It came 
naturally to me." Taylor agreed diat 
it's still possible to %e"a little bit 
of Puck coming out in William si 
times." 

Summer Shakes will perfmn 
"The Tempest" at die Francis Land 
HcHise at 8 p.m. Thursdays duough 
Saturdays beginning July 9 and 
ending August 2. These 
poformances will be outdo(H^, and 
tlw audioiceis encouragedto bring 
lawn chairs and picnic badrets. On 
Friday and Saturday nights, "The

By Mark Hall 

Correspondent 

Virginia Beach held a dedkaiian 
ceremony of two new public safety 
facilities near the oceanfiont on Kfonday. 

The facilities are the fire dq»itmait's 
station no. 11, located at 800 Virginia 
Beach Blvd., and the police departn^nt's 
2nd precinct located next door at 820 
Virginia Beach Blvd. 

City officials and members of the 
community gathered at the coemony 
where they were addressed by Virginia 
Beach Mayor Meyera Obemdorf, Pdia 
Chief Charles Wall and Fire Chief James 
Carter. 

"What a great day this is for public 
safety — we feel that our police and fire 
departments are %cond to none in the 
state of Virginia." said Obemdorf. "Hoe 
at the oceanfront, our police and fire 
personnel will be able to re^XHid quickly 
to the needs of our citizens, as well as 
the 2.S million visitors we enjoy each 
year." 

The new police precinct is four times 



as laife (19,500 square feet) as the oki 
IHtcinct (5,980 square feet) and the new 
fire station is api»'Oximateiy one-third 
larger (15.988 square feet) than die M 
fire station (10,2(X} square feet). 

Following the ribbon cutting by 
Obemdorf, Wall and Carter, visitors 
enjoyed light refreshments and took pan 
in a tour of the facilities. 

IrKluded in the tour were equipment and 
f^ility displays along with the officers 
and firefighters assigned. 

Some of the popular interests during to 
open tour were the visits of the Mounted 
Patrol, featuring mounts Archimedes and 
Baron, as well as Ben, the nac(Kics

The fire station was also a big 
attraction with the Monster Fire Truck

City Council Raporter 

The city staff has recommended 
combining the Bayside Library addition 
with the police precinct project as a 
modified option for the library's 
infrastructure and service enhancement 
program. 

The $15,000-square-foot addition alone 
wonld^have cost $2.9 million. The 
c(»nbined project will cost $5.6 million. 
E. Dean Block, director of management 
and the budget, told council at a budget 
workshop last week, that the best 
approach fw bodi projects, since the city 
ctecickdto keep the site, was to do both 
projects at the same time. He said that it 
would be difficult to do the library and 
then return later to build the precinct 
because of the small size of the site. 

Since the library staff and board first 
presented its needs last April for a multi- 
million dollar program and requested 
council to call for a referendum for 
citizen approval of the expenditure which 
would result in a real estate tax increase 
the program has been subjected to 
numerous financing options. 

The latest options, presented last week, 
would call for tax increases ranging from 
a 0.7 cent tax increase to a 3.4 cent lax 
increase which would take care of the 
mtirepn^ram. 

Council, which aieadyhas a school 
bond referendum on its plate for next 
November, is expected to decide on a 
Ute:aiy refermdum at -the same time. 

Block has suggested using the city's. 
fund balance for the central library 
renovation, which is included in ail 
options, the reroofing/heating and air 
conditioning rehabilitation where needed 
and a new Pungo/Blackwater fa;ility 



which will be constructed with the 
Creeds Elementary School and is part of 
the school bond referendum. > 

Refurbishing the aging infrastructure of 
the city's libraries only would take a tax 
increase of 0.7 cents and would include in 
addition to the central library renovation, 
the Windsor Woods renovation, the 
Bayside replacement with the poike 
precimu replacement, the Oceanfiom 
replacement, the Kempsville renovation 
and the Great Neck additicm. 

Additional options include ttese 
projects, but add more. 

For instance it would take a 1.2 cent 
tax increase to include all of these 
projects (except for the Oceanfront 
replacement, the Kempsville renovation 
and die Great Neck addition) plus the new 
Princess Anne facility. 

A 2.5 cent tax increase would include 
all the previously mentioned projects and 
add staffing and electronic service. About 
60 positions would be added which will 
provide one or two more staff members 
per shfft at more than eight locations, 
said Marcy Sims, library directcx-. 

She said that at present a library staff 
can spend an average of less than two 
minutes per visitor. She said that patrons 
need help with the electronic media and 
find themselves in a more complex 
environment. The cost will be 
$1,018,000. 

The final option would require a 3.4 
cent tax increase and would included new 
Green Run/Salem facility and Sunday 
hours at all branches. 

A "stand alone" project alternative is a 
new facility and staffing for a library in 
the Princess Anne area which would 
require a 0.9 cent tax increase.

A COAT OP GOODWILL 

A sense of community 

Tomorrow a team of volunteers, by 
conservative estimates some 2,000-strong, 
will gather at homes of the elderly and 
disables to take a "lick" at fixing up their 
communities. 

In will be the second areawlde Paint Your 
Heart Out, Hampton Roads — regionalism at 
Its best. Rotary Clubs In all South Hampton 
Roads cities are Joining hearts and hands to 
spread a coat of goodwill. 

Last year's first- time regional effort proved 
so remarkable that this year nearly 100 
homes — houses that otherwise might not get 
the much-needed care they need because 
their elderly owners are on fixed Incomes — 
will be tackled. The result is enhanced pride 
In ownership and better-looking 
neighborhoods. 

Without the support of the volunteers who 
get the grunt work done, and businesses 
which donate the necessary supplies, the 
project would not be possible. 

This is the public's chance to make a 
difference in the lives of elderly citizens and 
toward working together as a region. So good 
luck tomorrow, heart volunteers, as you work 
up a sweat. 

And remember, Paint Your Heart Out, 
Hampton Roads! — V.E.H. 

CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION 

It's your issue, too 

Child abuse is a relatively unique social 
issue in that almost no one questions whether 
it's right or wrong. With abortion, gun 
control, even drugs, you have two sides to the 
coin. But It Is hard to Imagine anyone saying 
publicly that they condone child abuse — 
even the abusers. True, there may be some 
dispute over what crosses the line and 
constitutes "abuse," but It goes against the 
grain of humanity to hurt an Innocent, 
helpless child. 

The Issue, as clear cut as It seems, is also 
one that does not necessarily draw outsiders 
in. People sit by dally across the country 
while children next door are abused 
physically, sexually and emotionally. There Is 
something taboo about sticking our noses In 
another parent's business, even If that 
business is as sinister as harming a child. 

Child abuse and the way our country is 
reacting to It has the strength to change the 
way society Interacts. 

Teachers, who share at least as much of a 
child's waking hours as most parents, are 
advised across the country to never touch 
children anymore. A hug can be misconstrued 
as sexual abuse, a pat on the back can be 
manipulated Into a beating by a money- 
lusting lawyer, and taking a violent child by 
the arm to prevent harm to other students or 
the teacher can be misconstrued as an 
attack. 

And a relatively new danger, played upon by 
children who are well aware of the change in 
society, leaves perfectly Innocent, reputable 
teachers and other adults almost helpless 
against being dragged through life-changing 
court proceedings by children who falsely say 
they have been abused. 

Youngsters have been told for years to "not 
talk to strangers" and are now trained 
formally to avoid contact with anyone who 
does not know secret, pre-planned codes. 
Children are learning to be loners and to live 
in fear of talking to anyone they don't already 
know, which Isolates them from a world full of 
good people — as well as the bad. 

And the saddest fact Is that this Is all of 
necessity. All of this madness was prompted 
by the reality that danger Is present, perhaps 
fired along by the society- altering fear of 
la^^ults. 

As a society where the abuse of children has 
grown to such proportions that non-abusers 
have altered our behavior and the way 
children are raised, we should be horrified by 
what abusers are doing across the country. 
How many generations will it take before the 
coldness leaves Impersonal creatures not 
capable of a hug or fearful of a touch.

The next Ronald Reagan? 



By Scott Bate* 

George Allen is the Ronald 
Reagan of Virginia politics. There 
are the political parallels. Both 
men took the helm of the 
Republican party at a time when 
the Democrats controlled both 
houses of the legislative branch of 
government. Both men defeated 
Democratic incumbents to gain 
office and both men left office, 
with their sky high popularity in 
good shape. 

Reagan and Allen possess a 
sunny disposition and infectious 
optimism. They can take apart an 
opponent with a smile on their 
face. 

What to do after public office 
was not a problem for Ronald 
Reagan. Reagan was 78 years dd 
when his term as president of the 
United States expired. He went to 
his ranch and settled into 
retirement. No big question as to 
what to do next. George Allen had 
not yet hit 45 years old when his 
term as Virginia's govemw 
expired. 

Former governor Allen has 
bought a $750,000 home on the 
banks of the James River in 
Richmond and joined one of the 
top law fuins in Virginia where he 
commands a salary that allows him 
to make the mortgage on that new 
home. Is he content to live out the 
last of his days in dignified yet 
very quiet political retirement? 
Don't bet cm it. 

George Allen has been a aeature 
of politics most of his adult life. 
He enjoyed becoming governor of 
Virginia. He defeated the odds by 
winning the nomination of his 
party. He beat the establishment 
and went on to win a stunning 



victwy over the heir apparent to 
the Democratic dynasty Mary Sue 
Terry. 

Allen did not stop there. He set 
the stage for the toppling of 
Democratic control over the 
General Assembly. By the end of 
his term, Allen had ended a century 
of Democratic rule in Richmond. 

The Republic party 
establishment wants to channel tlie 
energies of this political 
phenomenon into defeating our 
current U.S. Sen. Chuck Robb. 
Robb as you will remember, was a 
vulnerable incumbent until Lt., 
Col. Oliver North decided to take 
on the challenge. North was too 
much for Virginia to bear and 
Robb retained his seat in the U.S. 
Senate. 

The Republican party 
establishment is grateful to George 
Allen for slaying the Democratic 
dynasty and ending Ms. Teny's 
career. The Republican party 
establishment is grateful that Allen 
toppled the Democrats firom 
Capitol Hill in Richmond. Now 
they hope that George Allen will 
move along in to a retirement type 
status by becoming a U.S. senator. 

By ascending to the race of U.S. 
senator, Allen would have a 
political stage from which to speak 
out and a very officious title. He 
would also lose control of the 
machinery of the Republican party 
of Virginia and lose out on the 
4,000 patronage jobs that a 
governor can give out 

This is where the interests of 
George Allen the politician and the 
Republic establishment in Virginia 
began to diverge. George Allen 
wished to become president of the 
United States of America. Do I 



know this as fact? Of course not Is 
it a pretty good guess? You bet it 
is. 

During 1996 dien-govonor 
Allen's political handlers woe 
mentioning high as possible vice 
presidential selection for Bob Dole, 
Good thing for Allen he never 
made the short list. 

Allen could go on to the U.S. 
Senate, but the track record for 
Washington insiders running for 
president has not been very good. 
In fact the only sitting U.S. 
Senator to win the presidency in 
this century was Jack Kennedy. 
And that was before people really 
started to dislike Washington. 

So imagine that George Mai 
wants to become president. How 
better to do it than beat the odds 
and win a second term as governor 
in 2001. Allen will fmally have 
the Republican legislature diat he 
always wanted to pass an agenda 
that he can brag about on the 
campaign stump. Democrats tore 
his agenda to shreds the first time. 

He would be out of office again 
in the beginning of 2005, v/bich 
would allow Allen more than a 
year to raise funds and campaip 
before the Iowa Caucus'. What 
could be better? 

George Allen wants to be 
governor again, but the Republican 
establishment including Lt. 
Governor Hager and Attcwney 
General Early wait in the wings 
and would prefer to see Allen move 
up and out of Richmond to the 
U.S. Senate. 

My bets are on the dd 
quarterback, George Allen, to 
complete his game plan and 
running for governor in the year 
2001.

The Real 
Wortd 

By B.J. SeB- 
»ions, senior col- 
umnist. 



Everything not 
alright with 
Madelaine Albright 

Secretary of State Madeleine 
Albright should be removed from 
•office forthwith. The very idea tet 
she would stick her nose into the 
business of 
the state of 
Virginia is 
obscene to 
say the least. 
Angel 
Breard, a 
damned 
murderer 
and rapist 
from Para- 
guay, was 
executed 
April 14 in 
the death 
house at 
Greensville 
Correctional 
— — ■^— ^^ Center in 
Jarratt 
Albright 
and the world court had sought a stay 
of execution. This man had gone 
through every appeal up to and in- 
cluding the U.S. Supreme Court and 
te execution was carried out as it 
should have been. Gov. Jim Gilmore 
^ould be complimented for not cav- 
ing in from outside pressure. 

What in the hell has the world court 
got to do with what happens in Vir- 
ginia? Nrthing — and neither has 
Albright 

All she has done since becoming 
secretary of state is fly all over the 
world and visit talk shows. She claims 
her reason for intervention in diis 
case is because of her concern for 
Americans who are arrested or de- 
tained abroad. Hogwash. If an Ameri- 
can murders or rapes in Paraguay or 
any other foreign country, they should 
pay the consequences. 

Is Albright saying that it is alright 
to execute Americans in America, 
but not foreigners in America? She 
has never intervened before. Is she 
inviting foreigners to come to 
America to kill and rape us. knowing 
diat we will do nodiing about it be- 
cause we have become afraid of ev- 
ery little rinky dinky country in the 
world? 

We could swat I^raguay like a fly , 
yet Albright is afraid of what tey 
will do when we execute one of them . 
With diat kind of thinking by our 
secretary of state, no wonder our for- 
eign polky is in such a state of chaos. 
Every time Virginia has an execution 
of a foreigner we hew from Mexico, 
Italy, te pope and now Paraguay. I 
realize that there are some in this 
country who would like to see our 
armed forces under the command of 
te United Nations and our courts 
umfer te world court Such great 
patriots as "Hanoi Jane" Fonda and 
others of her ilk would, no doubt, like 
to see some changes in America tet 
most Americans wouldn't approve 
of and apparently Albright comes 
somewhere in that category. 

People of America and Virginia in 
IMUticular should resent outside in- 
twference from foreign counbies in 
our court system w anything else for 
that matter. I suspect that taxpayer 
mcmey is going to help support te 
world court and it should be stopped. 

We could use that money to feed 
te poor, help te sick, stop <biigs and 
build schools. 

Welcome to the real world.

Guild gathering brings 
people together regionally 




The 

Mayor's 

Report 

Mayor Meyera 
Obemdorf 



Regionalism was the name of the 
game on March 28 at the seventh 
annual Gathering of the Guilds. The 
18th-century Francis Land House 
Historic Site 
and Gardens 
provided the 
perfect back- 
drop for 13 
regional an 
and craft 
fuilds to 
gather. Guild 
members 
from all over 
the Hampton 
Roads area 
were sharing 
information 
and demon- 
strating their 
speciality to 
the general 
public. 

The first 
Francis Land 
to tiBvel to the 
new world in tte early 1600s is re- 
ported to have been a cooper, acrafts- 
man making buckets and barrels. He 
would more than likely have been 
very familiar with the English guild 
system. The craft guilds in England 
in the 1 7 A and 1 8th centuries were an 
important part of thecraftsman's life. 
These guilds were organized to pro- 
tect the craft and to insure the quality 
of the goods they produced. Today 
these guilds could be compared to a 
trade union. 

The Enghsh craft guild system did 
not cross the Adantic with the colo- 
nists. The guild system that has 
emerged in America is now associ- 
ated with the preservation of an art 
form. The guilds in the Hampton 
Roads area unite people with a com- 
mon interest. These guilds are dedi- 
cated to preservation as well as to the 
education of the public. Membership 
in the local guilds requires only an 
interest in the art form. 

More than 500 people from all cor- 
ners of the Hampton Roads area at- 
tended the gathering during the four- 
hour special event at the Land House. 
It was refreshing to see so many young 
people in attendance. Girl Scouts and 
Boy Scouts were busy asking ques- 
tions which would help them with 
their badge work, home-school par- 
ents used the event as an important 
teaching arena and many guests re- 
ceived help on their own projects. 

There was certainly something for 
everyone at this smnual event. It was 
fascinating to watch the Homer's 
Guild boil horns over an open fire 
andcrealeapowder horn. Music filled 
the air as memfjers of the Tidewater 
Friends of Folk Music played dulci- 
mer and guitar. Under the spreading 
"sycamore" tree, the Tidewater 
Blacksmith Guild tai^ hot metal 
on the anvil. 

The cellar of the Francis Land 
House was abuzz with activity. The 



weavwswcieopcratingsevaalloom, 
at once. The lao; makers were busy at 
their bobUn lace piltows twisting and 
turning the thread into intricately 
woven lace. Knitting needles were 
flying as the knittere turned skeins of 
yam into beautiful ^rments. 

A quilt frame occupied a portion of 
the cellar and the quitters nimble fin- 
gers flew over tl« fabric with great 
dexterity. There were smockers, 
nighookers, seamstresses, basket 
makers and needlepoint expms, all 
working on projects. 

Out on the lawn in front of the 
beautiful Francis Land House, the 
Native Plan Society , another regional 
organization, held its annual plant 
sale. They were also eagerly sharing 
information on g^ffdening and on the 
native plants of Virginia 

As always, it was interesting lis- 
tening to the Francis Land House 
c(stumed docents as they provided 
each visitor with a history of the Land 
family and their life in eariy Virginia 
Beach. The seventh annual "Gather- 
ing of the Guilds" was a wonderful 
aftemoon. Thanks go to all of the 
Guilds who are busy each day pre- 
serving the arts and crafts of days 
gone by. 

Following are present day practic- 
ing guilds and their meeting times. If 
you need mwe information or if you 
are interested in any particular guild, 
all Vickie Harvey at the Francis Land 
House at 43 1 -4000 for additional in- 
formation. 

Bet you didn't know there were so 
many present day guilds: 

■ American Needlepoint Guild, 
third Samrday, 10a.m.,St Gregory's, 
Virginia Beach. 

■ High Country Basketry Guild,

Up close and personal 

Joann Cooper: % your htaiikl 



By Victoria Hacht 

Being named Virginia Beach's Public 
Heath Nurse of the Year for 1998 was a 
welcome shot in the arm for Joann Cooper, 
who has made a career of caring fw others 
since 1970. 

Before coming to the resort city in 1991, 
Cooper worked briefly in Richmond, then 
with Family Planning in Norfolk for 21 
years. Transferring to the Beach, she joined 
the Communicable Disease Unit, were she 
deals {vimarily with tuberculosis (TB) and 
HIV. 

As coordinator for the city's TB 
prevention and treatment program. Cooper 
oversees a chest clinic and assists the HIV 
clinic. The rest of her time is spent in case 
management, taking her on the road to 
patients' homes and living environments. 

Tliough many people think tuberculosis is 
a deadly killer disease of yesteryear, 
Cooper laments that it's on the rise in the 
1990s. 

"Actually, this week we've seen four or 
five possible cases." she noted. 

She cites HIV, which breaks down the 
immune system, as one reason for the 
increase. Another is an influx of foreign-bom 
people immigrating to the United States 
carrying the disease. 

The push to keep people healthy is one of 
the reasons the Thalia resident went into 
public health. 

"I'm of the generation where you didn't 
have a lot of options if you were a woman. 
You either became a nurse, a secretary or a 
teacher. I like public health because you 
get to see the total patient in their home. " 
The days of the "house call" are not over. 
"You leam so much in a person's home," 
she said. "When people go the doctor, they 
may be tense or keyed up. But when you go 
into their home you're in their environment" 
The conditions in which a person lives — 
often less than ideal — can help Cooper 
make invaluable health care decisions. 

"You can't be judgmental," she 
cautioned. "You learn right away that you 
have to meet them at their level." 

The small thank you's that Cooper gets 
every so often make her work as a public 
servant worth it. 

"I had this guy come in for a TB 
screening and he was chewing on a small 
twig," she remembered. "When I asked him 
why he said that he had a tooth that hurt so 
badly he had to bite down on the stick." 

Though that wasn't why the man had 
come to see Cooper and couldn't afToird 
dental treatment, she went beyond the call 
of dut^ and found a dentist who volunteered 
to hei^faim. Soon after, the man, minus his 
festering tooth, returned to profti^ly thank 
her fw the effort 

"It was so wonderful," she smiled. "It's 
things like that that make it worth it" 

Being named Public Health Nurse of the 
Year makes it even better. But it won't 
change her. 

"I'm just going to keep doing what I do," 
Cooper promised. "I got to this point that 
way. so I must be doing something right I 
love what I do and still enjoy coming to 
woric in the morning."

Regent inaugurates new 
president next weel( 



Regent University President Paul 
G. Cerjan will be officially 
inaugurated as the university's fifth 
president on April 30. The event is 
expwied to draw a host of academic 
and military representation from 
around the country. 

Cerjaa, Lieutenant General, USA 
(R), assumed his presidential duties 
last November following the 
resignation of Dr. Terry Lindvall, 
who accepted a distinguished chair 
in the university's College of 
Communication and the Arts. 

Cerjan was a member of the 
Regent Board of Trustees since 
April 1996. His prestigious 
military career includes having 
served as president of both the 
National Defense University 
(NDU), and the Army War 
College. At NDU he reported 
directly to the chairman of the join 
chiefs of staff. Cerjan was tasked 
with educating most of the senior 
leadership of the Department of 



Defense, State and selected other 
government agencies. He m^iaged 
a faculty and staff of more than 
500, a student population of 
approximately 4,000 and an 
operating budget of $24.5 million. 

University Founder/Chancellor 
Pat Robertson and the Board of 
Trustees appointed Cerjan to the 
position with great confidence in 
his wealth of professional 
experience. During his career, 
Cerjan has also supervised an 
organization with 22 separate 
entities, an operating budget of 
more than $950 million and a staff 
of more than 70,000 employees. 

The April 30 inauguration 
ceremony will be held at 3 p.m. in 
the Virginia Ballroom of the 
Founders Inn adjacent to the 
Regent University campus. 
Chancellor Robertson will give the 
induction speech to which Cerjan 
will respond with his inaugural 
address.

"The Tempest" by the miraculous 
return of an English expeditiwi 
thought to be lost at sea. In 1609, 
The Sea Adventure was lost in a 
storm on its way to Jamestown, 
Virginia. More than one yew later, 
the entire ship's company sailed 
into the Chesapeake Bay in two 
new ships which they lad 
constructed from the wrwdcage of 
the old, after being blown ashore 
on the as yet unexplored island of 
Bermuda (known then as the Isle of 
Divils).

Pungo trek 
raises $35,000 
for society 

By Matk Hali 

Corra«Dond>frt 

The first London Memorial Ride 
proved to be a big success Sunday 
with a turnout in Pungo of more 
than 200 bicyclists riding to help 
the Leukemia Society of Amnica. 

The event is named in memory 
of Norfolk resitknt Jimmy London, 
who died of leukemia more than a 
year ago. He was an avid cycUst 
and was a lover of the ootdoon. 

Family, friends and feltow 
cyclists described him to be 
"vibrant and enwgetic — his love 
for the outdoors and his special 
enthusiasm for bicycling knew no 
bounds." 

"We wanted to make a significant 
contribution to fight leukemia," 
said Joan London, his wife, who 
also served as event organizer. "He 
was a passionate long-distance nder 
and he really loved life." 

The three-course event focused on 
areas where Jimmy and his friends 
often rode their bicycles. 

Starting at the Coast Guard 
Station in Pungo, there was a six- 
mile course suggested for beginners 
and families, a quiet and serene 28- 
mile course in the "back coundy" 
of Pungo and Creeds and lastly, a 
challenging 68 mile course through 
Knqtts Island, N.C. for the more 
experienced cyclist 

All three had rest stops, and 
lunch was served at the mid-point 




RACING FOR A CURE. DeifMe the weather, more then 200 bi^eiliti turned out for the fint London 
Memortoi Ride in Punfo. The event wm held to relie money to fight leukemie. 



of the 68-mile course. The courses 
ended back at the Coast Guad 
station. 

One of the participants in the ride 
was Krisa Murray, a graduate 
student at the Virginia Institute of 
Marine Science. 

Murray was riding in honor of a 
friend. 

"I have a friend at school who 
has a fiance^ with leukemia," saki 
Murray, "so I'm riding the 28-mile 
course today lo help raise money. 

Some of the riders were members 
of Jimmy London's family, as well 
as his friends. 



By the time most of the ridos 
were starting to leave, Leukemia 
Society of America special events 
campaign manager Dwayla Booth 
said more than $35,000 had been 
raised to help fight the deadly 
disease. 

At first the weather was a 
concern with m overcast sky and a 
chance of rain, but the coordinmors 
said that did not seem to effect die 
turnout of supporters and riders. 

"We had a fabulous turnout for a 
first event of this kind," saki 
Booth.

Marine Science Museum adds 
green sea turtle to collection 



The Virginia Marine Science 
Museum will add a green sea turtle 
to its cuirnit sea turtle collection. 

The turtle will arrive at the 
museum this week from die 
National Aquarium in Washington, 
D.C. where he has lived for die 
past nine years. Originally, die 
turtle was given to die ^uarium by 
U.S. Cusumis officials after being 
confiscated in 1989. 

Rarely seen in the waters of 
Virginia, Uie green sea turtle will 
mark die third species iqxesenled 
in the Virginia Marine Science 
Museum's 70,000-gallon sea tirtle 
habitat The aquarium replicates the 
Chesapeake Bay Light Tower 
located ai^noximalely 13 miles off 
shcxe. 

The Uink currendy houses eight 
loggerhead and two Kemps ridleys 
sea turtles. Upon arrival at the 
museum, die turtle will go Uirough 
a ^andard 30-d^ qt»»ttine process 
fcK close moniumng vxi evaluation 
before being added to die 
cdlection. 

"We arc very excited about die 
acquisition and being able to 
provide a suitable home for die 
gr^n sea turtle," says Miik 
Swingle, curtto- of acquisitirais fior 
the museum. 

"Five of the world's seven 
specie of sea turtles have been 
found in Virginia. With this 
acquisition, tN; museum will now 
have ihr^ qiecies nqveaaMtive of 
Virginia fauu for visi^ to §Bt 
BidappRcaaie."

turUes iue dark brown acceniedby a 
pattern of even darker slwll 
markings. Historically hunted for 
dieir ediUe meat, die qiecies is one 
of die most highly valued marine 
turtles. Consequently, diey have 
been intensely harvested rating 
in depleted populations. It is 
diought diat the gmn fat lends a 
uniqtK flavor to Uie meat. Hie 
species is listed as "direatened''ai 
the U.S. List of Emiffiigered and 
Threatenel Wildlife mid Pisits. 

The green sea tmtle is found in 
the Atlantic Ocean from New 
England to Argentina including die 
Gulf of Mexico and CariU)ean. In 
Virginia, the animal is rare, 
occurring occasionally doing 
sumn^'. Most sightings from New 
England and the Middle A^toic 
states are of juveniles, as they leni 
to wamler further from the tropics 
than do adults. Adults may leach 
300 pounds while juveniles in 
Virginia weigh less than 100 



pounds. 

Green sea turtles lay eggs ihxn 
March to October primarily on 
beaches in the West Indies, die 
Caribbean shores of South and 
Central Amoica, and on die Dry 
Tortugas. Occasionally, nesting 
occurs on die coasts of die Gulf erf 
Mexico, Florida and Bermuda. 
NcHinally coming ashwe only to 
nest. green turtles have 
occaskxially been seen 'liauled out" 
l»dcing in die tnpcs. 

Although green sea turdes 
underlie Imig oceanic migrations, 
they feed in shallow ueas, 
particularly in die vicinity of sea 
grass b^s. Adults feed heavily on 
die submerged sea grass, Thall^sia 
and other marine plants. It is 
thought that this i^am-eitting 
lifestyle is die cause of the green 
body fat In ccHitrast, juveniles mc 
more omnivorous eating jellyfish, 
moUusks and crustaceans in 
wklitoi to plffius.

volunieerism," said Spore. "Ova- 
the years this garden will grow — 
just think how beautiful it will be 
20 years from now." 

Russo said response from 
citizens willing to volunteer is a 
good example of what makes 
Virginia Beach "the great city it is. 

"The citizens are so wonderful in 
their response to our request for 
help. It is these wonderful people 
who volunteer to make this die 
best city in the world," said Russo. 

She became the city's first 
volunteer appointed by City

lea(tership role for 15 of die 20-year 
history of die council.

with refreshments and 
entertainment. Composer and 
musician Larry Van Nostrand sang 
the volunteer anthem, 'Thank You, 
Virginia Beach Volunteers," which 
included a sing along. 

The Volunteer Council conceiX 
began in October 1977 when the 
City Council established die 
Mayor's Committee on the Use of 
Volunteers to determine if citizen 
volunteers could be mc«e 
effectively used within city 
agencies. 

In May 1978 council 
unanimously adopted a final report 



of the Mayor's Committee and 
created the Volunteer Council as an 
umbrella organization to provide 
support for departmental volunteer 
programs. 

The largest city volunteer 
programs include the all voluntea- 
Emergency Medical Services rescue 
squads with over 600,000 hours 
donated annually at a value (^ 
nearly $8 million and the Virginia 
Beach Sheriffs Office with over

$3.6 million. 

Additionally, 1 1 other dqiart- 
ments and agencies have donated 
hours valued at more dian 
$100,000 each annually.

Girls 5, boys 6; repairman wins in rezoning discussion 



By Lee Cahlll 

city Council Reportar 

A 6-5 vote, split by gender, won 
a use permit for Mills Lawn aid 
Garden to operate a small engine 
repair shop at 928 Commonwealth 
Plffi*. 

It was the girls versus the boys 
last week as the five women on 
City Council voted against the use 
permit and the six men voted for 
the permit. 

Remarked councilman W.W. 
Harrison Jr. after the vote, "That's 
because you don't have to mow the 
lawn." 

WCMS-FM Radio, which owns 
the building next door where it 
operates its r^io station and rents 
space to other tenants, objected to 
the location of the shop there. 



David Crowder, chief engineer for 
WCMS, said that the station tries 
to keep everything quiet and that 
the neighborhood was residential. 
The Mills' property is zoned B-2, 
however. 

He said he didn't know how an 
engine repair business would be 
compatible. 

Al Foreman, building manager 
and engineer for the WCMS 
building, said the tenants are 
concerned about the noise and said 
that a lot of children are running 
around the neighborhood. 

James H. Mills, the applicant, 
said that if the people are that 
sensitive to the noise, everyone 
who mows a lawn in the 
neighborhood would be at fault. 

Planning Director Robert Scott,

application, said that a lawn mower 
is not a foreign sound in a 
residential neighborhood. He said 
the ^q)earanceof the building now 
is not too good and would be 
improved by the applicant He said 



that the properly on cither side is 
also zoned for business. 

Councilwoman Reba McClanan 
asked, "Aren't we entitled to do a 
little more?" 

Scott replied that if he thought 
the use was not acceptable he 



would have recommended approval. 

Councilwoman Louisa Strayhom 
said she was uncomfortable 
moving for approval when there 
was so much opposition. 

Councilman W.W. Harrison Jr. 
noted that die wotk would be inside 



but the mowers had to be tested 
outside. 

Strayhom's motion to d«iy lost , 
by the 5-6 vote with the boys 
winning out. Thwe were just mwe 
of then. 



But who paid the school debt? 



By Lee CahHI 

City Council Reporter 

An editorial in the newqi^r 
raised questions about just who 
paid the $12 million school debt 
of a couple of years ^o. 

Was it the School Board with the 
help of the new superintendent of 
schools Dr. Timothy Jenney? Or 



was it the city? 

Mayor Meyera Obemdorf said 
that the Virginian-Pilot editorial 
said that the School Board paid die 
debt. 

Well, it did and it didn't, said E. 
Dean Block, director of 
management and the budget. 

The school system came out 



with a surplus last year of $16 
million, enough to pay the debt 
and more, which it turned over the 
city, according to policy. But die 
city, said Block, returned the $16 
million to the school system. 
What happened is Uiat the city paid 
the debt and forgave die debt 
Councilman W.W. Harrison Jr. 



summarized: "We could have kept 
it but gave it back." 

People are asking what is the 
trudi, said Obemdorf. 

"I don't think anyone is telling 
stories," said Block. "The City 
Council made a very generous 
decision." 



Bayside Library addition 



Contlnusd From Pag* 1 

The program would encumber the 
fund balance by $8.6 million. 
Usin^ these funds would work fw 
the infraistructure improvements, 
said Block, but not for staff costs 
because of the recurring expense. 

Mayor Meyera Obemdorf urged 
including projects all over the city 
in a referendum. She said that die 
city failed in its referendum when 
it included erne recreaticxi center at a 



time, but was successful when 
laying out a sysd^ for the entire 
city. 

The way the options are set up 
the council can single out slaffrng 
and Sunday hours, Block said. 

Sims said that adding Sunday 
hours will cost a half million 
dollars. 

Council is expected to make a 
decision on the referendum at die 
May 6 budget reconciliation 
workshop.

Let's face it, when it comes to car repair, 
too many folks take the "if it ain't broke, don't 
fix if approach. Which probably explains why 
so many cars on the road today have shock 
absorbers or struts in need of replacing. 

That's because shock absorbers seldom 
"break". Instead, they wear out gradually over 
time. So gradually, that many drivers fail to 



realize just how worn their snocks have 
become. Well the fact is, dfiving around on a 
set of wom out sh(fcl?s1s just not safe. 

So keep that in mind the next time you're 
out and about. You might just want to drop by 
your local AutoZone and take advantage of our 
special "Buy 3, Get 1 Free" offer on premium 
Gabriel* Gas Ryder* shocks and struts.
